^^^  HIS  book  is  given  to  the  Church 
Cj.  in  the  behef  that  it  will  meet  a 
felt  want  among  our  people. 
The  project  of  issuing  an  edition  of  our 
Evangelical  Lutheran  Hymnal  with  mu- 
sic has  been  suggested,  and  urged,  and 
discussed,  for  ten  years  or  more.  Be- 
fore anytliing  more  tangible  was  done, 
efforts  were  put  forth  to  determine,  by 
inviting  advance  subscriptions,  whether 
the  work  could  be  undertaken  without 
incurring  too  great  financial  risk.  The 
repeated  requests  and  appeals  for  such 
an  edition  of  our  Hymnal  which,  mean- 
while, have  come  from  all  quarters  of 
our  Synod  afford  assurance  that  the 
book  is  supplying  an  actual  and  wide- 
spread demand.  Whatever  shortcom- 
ings this  first  edition  of  our  Hymnal 
with  Music  may  possess,  it  cannot  fairly 
be  laid  to  its  charge,  either  that  the 
work  was  undertaken  hastily  and  pre- 
maturely, or  that  the  committees  en- 
gaged upon  the  various  tasks  assigned 
spared  aught  of  time  and  effort  to  make 
the  book  as  complete  and  satisfactory  as 
possible.  A  brief  and  summary  state- 
ment of  the  history  of  the  enterprise 
may  suffice  here.  For  details  we  would 
refer  to  the  Proceedings  of  the  Joint 
Synod  of  Ohio  of  1902  and  1904.  and  to 
those  of  the  First  English  District  of 
1896,  1898,  and  1901  to  1906. 

At  its  convention  in  1901  the  First 
English  District  of  the  Joint  Synod  of 
Ohio  and  Other  States  resolved  to  pro- 
ceed with  the  work  by  appointing  the 
late  Rev.  E.  G.  Tressel  and  Professor 
Edward  Pfeiffer  a  committee  to  arrange 
the  liturgical  part  of  the  Hymnal,  with 


authority  and  instructions  to  appoint 
two  other  committees,  one  to  select  ad- 
ditional hymns,  not  exceeding  seventy- 
five  in  number,  and  the  other  to  ar- 
range the  music  for  the  hymns.  The 
following  brethren  were  appointed  and 
performed  the  work  assigned  them :  As 
the  committee  on  hymns:  Revs.  W.  E. 
Tressel,  Wm.  H.  Price,  G.  W.  Lose,  W. 
L.  Spielman,  and  J.  Beck;  and  as  the 
committee  on  music :  Revs.  Prof.  Carl 
Ackermann,  Ph.  D.,  Wm.  H.  Lehmann, 
W.  E.  Schramm,  and  Mr.  Edward  F. 
Daume. 

The  purpose  and  action  of  the  Eng- 
lish District  in  the  matter  were  reported 
to  Joint  Synod  and  approved  by  that 
body  at  its  bi-ennial  convention  in  1902, 
with  the  provision  that  the  new  hymns 
to  be  selected,  and  to  be  added  as  an 
appendix  to  the  hymns  in  our  present 
Hymnal,  be  submitted  in  provisional 
copy  to  our  pastors  for  criticism  and 
referred  for  final  approval  to  a  com- 
mittee appointed  by  Joint  Synod,  of 
which  President  C.  H.  L.  Schuette,  D. 
D.,  was  chairman.  Of  the  seventy-five 
hymns  submitted,  this  committee  ap- 
proved  forty-nine. 

At  its  annual  convention  in  1904  the 
English  District  completed  the  neces- 
sary arrangements  for  the  publication 
of  the  Hymnal  by  resolving  that  an 
edition  of  1,500  copies  be  published,  and 
adding  to  the  joint  hymnal  committee 
an  executive  committee,  consisting  of 
Pastors  W.  N.  Harley  and  W.  L.  Spiel- 
man  and  Professor  Pfeiffer,  to  attend  to 
the  work  of  publication,  with  the  Rev. 
W.  N.  Harley  as  managing  editor.

preface 


While  all  the  committees  have  faith- 
fully done  their  part,  special  acknowl- 
edgment is  due  to  the  members  of  the 
music  committee  and  to  the  managing 
editor,  without  whose  tireless  and  per- 
sistent labors  and  unwearied  attention 
to  innumerable  details  the  work  could 
not  have  been  carried  to  a  successful 
issue.  The  music  committee  was  kindly 
assisted  by  Mrs.  H.  B.  Adams,  of  Lima, 
Ohio,  in  looking  over  the  harmony  of 
the  melodies.  The  Pilger  Book  Store, 
Reading,  Pa.,  gave  the  committee  per- 
mission to  use  one  melody  gratis.  In 
the  selection  of  melodies  the  committee 
sought  to  offer  the  best  that  could  be 
found,  though  usage  among  us  was  not 
overlooked  and  frequently  decided  the 
selection. 

In  regard  to  the  liturgical  forms  and 
the  insertion  of  the  Introits,  Graduals, 
and  Collects  in  the  appendix,  we  have 
been  guided  by  the  instructions  of  Joint 
oynod.  The  Order  of  Morning  Service 
in  the  present  Hymnal  is  the  revised 
form  approved  by  Joint  Synod  at  its 
convention,  in  1904.  It  differs  only 
slightly  from  the  old  order,  being  more 
fully  conformed  to  the  order  of  our 
German  Agende.  The  Order  of  Even- 
ing Service  was  prepared  under  instruc- 
tions of  Joint  Synod  and  duly  approved 


by  that  body.  It  appears  in  this  Hyn>- 
nal  in  two  different  settings.  The  first 
form  follows  the  Gregorian  or  Plain 
Song  melodies ;  and  for  the  harmoniza- 
tion of  these  melodies  we  are  indebted, 
to  Mr.  Arthur  Mees,  of  New  York. 
This  music  has  for  some  time  been  in 
use  in  some  of  our  churches,  and  many 
have  learned  to  appreciate  and  love 
it.  For  those  who  are  unwilling  to 
study  and  adopt  this  music  another  set- 
ting has  been  furnished  and,  with  the 
approval  of  the  English  District,  has 
been  added  in  the  present  book.  It  fol- 
lows the  Anglican  music  of  the  service 
and  was  kindly  supplied  by- the  Rev.  J. 
F.  Ohl,  Mus.  D.,  of  Philadelphia.  It  is 
earnestly  hoped  that  this  choice  of 
musical  settings,  ancient  and  more  mod- 
ern, will  facilitate  the  introduction  and 
use  of  the  Service  in  our  English  con- 
gregations. 

May  this  edition  of  our  Hymnal,  wit 
its  musical  and  devotional  treasures  and 
helps,  afford  the  expected  aid  to  our 
people  in  their  worship  both  in  their 
homes  and  in  the  services  of  God's 
house,  and  may  its  use  redound  to  the 
edification  of  the  Church  and  to  the  en- 
hancement of  its  worship  to  the  glory 
of  God.

Notwithstanding  the  fact  that  the  pub- 
lishing committee  was  induced  by  the  in- 
creasing demands  for  the  new  Hymnal 
to  double  the  edition  ordered  by  the 
First  English  EHstrict  nearly  four  years 
ago,  printing  .'J. 000  instead  of  1,500, 
thus  issuing  in  reality  two  editions  at 
once,  the  supply  was  exhausted  within  a 
month  afte^  its  appearance. 

A  word  of  caution  may  be  in  place 
with  reference  to  the  use  of  new  melo- 
dies.    Tliey  should  not  at  a  public  ser- 


vice be  sprung  on  a  congregation  that  is 
not  prepared  to  sing  them,  but  should 
be  practiced  beforehand.  Such  practice 
may  be  profitably  undertaken  in  connec- 
tion with  secondary  services  and  meet- 
ings, or  at  the  close  of  the  morning 
service.  In  this  way  the  congregation 
may  be  truly  edified  and  advanced,  not 
only  in  the  beautiful  art  of  singing,  but 
in  worshiping  the  Lord  in  the  beauty  of 
holiness.

If  we  say  that  we  have  no  sin,  wc  deceive  ourselves,  and  the  truth  is  not 
in  us.  If  we  confess  our  sins,  He  is  faithful  and  just  to  forgive  us  our  sins, 
and  to  cleanse  us  from  all  unrighteousness.  Let  us,  therefore,  make  confession 
unto  (iod,  saying  : 

Ai,Mi(;H'rv  (iod,  our  Maker  and  Redeemer,  we  ])Oor  sinners  confess  unto 
Thee,  that  we  are  by  nature  sinful  and  unclean,  and  that  we  have  sinned  against 
Thee  by  thought,  word  and  deed.  Wherefore  we  flee  for  refuge  to  Thine  in-

*f^lv\RLY  Beloved  !  The  Holy  Scri])tures  declare,  that,  when  the  wicked 
»^  man  turneth  away  from  his  wickedness,  and  doeth  that  which  is  lawful 
and  right,  he  shall  save  his  soul  alive.  The  sacrifices  of  God  are  a  broken 
and  a  contrite  heart.  To  the  Lord  belong  mercies  and  forgivenesses,  though 
we  have  rebelled  against  Him.  Let  us,  therefore,  confess  our  sins  unto  our 
Father,  with  sincere,  humble,  and  obedient  hearts,  that  we  may  obtain 
remission  of  the  same,  by  His  infinite  goodness  and  mercy. 

Almighty  and  most  merciful  Father,  imto  whom  all  hearts  are  0])en,  and 
all  desires  are  known,  all  whose  commandments  are  just,  necessary,  and  good  ; 
we  confess  unto  Thee,  that  we  have  erred  and  strayed  from  Thy  ways  like  lost 
sheep.  We  have  followed  too  much  the  devices  and  desires  of  our  own  hearts. 
We  have  offended  against  Thy  holy  laws.  We  have  left  undone  those  things 
which  we  ought  to  have  done  ;  and  we  have  done  those  things  which  we  ought 
not  to  have  done.  But  enter  not,  we  beseech  Thee,  into  judgment  with  us  ; 
for  in  Thy  sight  shall  no  man  living  be  justified.  As  Thou  hatest  nothing 
which  Thou  hast  made,  and  desirest  not  the  death  of  a  sinner,  but  rather  that 
he  may  turn  from  his  wickedness  and  live, — have  mercy,  O  Lord,  upon  us 
miserable  offenders.  Spare  Thou  those,  O  God,  who  confess  their  faults. 
Restore  Thou  those  who  are  truly  ])enitent,  according  to  Thy  gracious  promises, 
<leclared  unto  mankind  in  Christ  jesus  our  Lord.  And  grant,  O  most  merciful 
Father,  that  we  may  hereafter  live  a  godly,  righteous,  and  sober  life,  to 
the  glory  of  Thy  holy  name,  through  Thv  blessed  Son,  our  Mediator  and 
Redeemer.

HLMIGHTV  and  everlasting  God,  Who  art  worthy  to  be  had  in  reverence  by 
all  the  children  of  men,  we  humbly  give  thanks  unto  Thee  for  the  innu- 
merable blessings,  both  temporal  and  spiritual,  which,  without  any  merit  or 
worthiness  on  our  part.  Thou  hast  bestowed  upon  us.  We  praise  Thee  especially 
that  Thou  hast  preserved  unto  us,  in  their  purity.  Thy  saving  Word  and  the 
sacred  ordinances  of  Thy  house. 

We  beseech  Thee,  O  Lord,  to  grant  and  to  preserve  unto  Thy  holy  Church, 
throughout  the  world,  purity  of  doctrine,  and  faithful  pastors  who  shall  preach 
Thy  Word  with  power;  and  help  all  who  hear  rightly  to  understand,  and  truly 
to  believe.  Be  Thou  the  Protector  and  Defense  of  rhy  people  in  all  times  of 
tribulation  and  danger  ;  and  may  we,  in  communion  with  Thy  holy  Church, 
and  in  brotherly  unity  with  our  fellow  Christians,  fight  the  good  fight  of  faith, 
and  in  the  end  receive  the  salvation  of  our  souls. 

Be.stow  the  influence  of  Thy  grace  upon  all  the  nations  of  the  earth- 
We  |)rav  Thee  especially  to  bless  our  land,  and  all  its  inhabitants,  and  all  who 
are  in  authority.  Cause  I'hy  glory  to  dwell  in  our  land,  mercy  and  truth, 
righteo:\sness  and  peace,  everywhere  to  prevail.  To  this  end  we  commend  to 
Thy  care  all  our  schools  and  other  institutions,  anrl  pray  Thee  to  make  them 
nurseries  of  useful  knowledge,  and  of  Christian  virtues  and  morals,  that  they 
miy  bring  for::h  among  us  the  wholesome  fruits  of  life. 

(graciously  defend  us  from  all  calamities  by  fire  and  water,  from  war  and 
I>estilence.  froui  scarcity  and  famine.  Protect  and  prosj)er  every  one  in  his 
a]jpropriate  calling  ;  and  cause  all  useful  arts  to  flourish  among  us.  Be  Thou

^f^l]ARLY  Beloved  !  Forasmuch  as  we  purpose  to  come  to  the  Holy  Supper 
^^  ol'  our  Lord,  wherein  He  giveth  us  His  body  to  eat  and  His  blood  to 
drink,  in  order  to  strengthen  and  confirm  our  faith  in  Him,  it  becomes  us 
diligently  to  examine  ourselves,  as  St.  Paul  the  Apostle  exhorteth:  ''Let  a  man 
examine  hmiself,  and  so  let  him  eat  of  that  bread  and  drink  of  that  cup." 
For  this  Holy  Sacrament  is  instituted  as  a  special  means  to  strengthen  and 
comfort  the  troubled  conscience  of  those  who  confess  their  sins,  and  who  hunger 
and  thirst  after  righteousness. 

Therefore,  whoso  eateth  of  this  bread,  and  drinketh  of  this  cup,  firmly 
believing  the  words  of  Christ,  dwelleth  in  Christ,  and  Christ  in  him,  and  he 
hath  eternal  life.  Let  us  also  obey  His  command  :  "This  do  in  remembrance 
of  Me":  showing  His  death,  that  He  was  delivered  for  our  offenses,  and  raised 
again  for  our  justification,  and  rendering  unto  Him  most  hearty  thanks  for  the 
innumerable  benefits  procured  unto  us  by  the  same,  take  up  our  cross  and  follow 
Him,  and  love  one  another  even  as  He  hath  loved  us.  For  we  are  all  one  bread, 
and  one  body,  even  as  we  eat  of  one  bread  and  drink  of  one  cup. 

tTbe  Consecration 

^  During  the  CONSECRATION  the  Minister  shall  turn  toward  the  altar. 

/T^LORY  be  to  Thee,  O  Lord  Jesus  Christ,  Thou  almighty  and  everlasting 
^^  Son  of  the  Father,  that  by  the  sacrifice  of  Thyself  upon  the  cross,  offered 
up  once  for  all,  Thou  didst  perfect  them  that  are  sanctified,  and  ordain,  as  a 
memorial  and  seal  thereof.  Thy  Holy  Supper,  -in  which  Thou  givest  us  Thy 
body  to  eat,  and  Thy  blood  to  drink,  that  being  in  I'hee,  even  as  Thou  art  in 
us,  we  may  have  eternal  life,  and  be  raised  up  at  the  last  day.  Most  merciful 
and  exalted  Redeemer,  we  humbly  confess  that  we  are  not  worthy  of  the  least 
of  all  the  mercies,  and  of  all  the  truth,  which  Thou  hast  shown  unto  us,  and 
that,  by  reason  of  our  sins,  we  are  too  impure  and  weak  worthily  to  receive 
Thy  saving  gifts.  Sanctify  us,  therefore,  we  beseech  Thee,  in  our  bodies  and 
souls,  by  Thy  Holy  Spirit,  and  thus  fit  and  prepare  us  to  come  to  Thy  Su|)per, 
to  the  glory  of  Thy  grace,  and  to  our  own  eternal  good.  And  in  whatsoever, 
through  weakness,  we  do  fail  and  come  short,  in  true  repentance  and  sorrow  on 
account  of  our  sins,  in  living  faith  and  trust  in  Thy  merits,  and  in  an  earnest 
purpose  to  amend  our  sinfiil  lives,  do  Thou  graciously  supi)ly  and  grant,  out  of 
the  fulness  of  the  merits  of  Thy  bitter  sufferings  and  death  ;  to  the  end  that  we, 
who  even  in  this  present  world  desire  to  enjoy  Thee,  our  only  comfort  and

Savior,  in  the  Holy  Sacriiincnt,  may  at  last  see  Thee  face  to  face  in  Thy 
hcaNcnly  kingdom,  and  dwell  with  Thee,  and  with  all  Thy  saints,  for  ever  and 
ever.      Amen. 

Our  Father,  Who  art  in  heaven  ;  Hallowed  be  Thy  Name  ;  Thy  kingdom 
come:  Thy  will  be  done  on  earth,  as  it  is  in  heaven;  Give  us  this  day  our 
daily  bread  ;  And  forgive  us  our  tresi)asses,  as  we  forgive  those  who  trespass 
against  us;  And  k'ad  us  not  into  tcmj)tation;  P>ut  deliver  us  from  evil  ;  For 
Thine  is  the  kingdom,  and  the  jjower,  and  the  glory,  for  ever  and  ever.     Amen. 

/^UR  Lord  Jesus  Christ,  in  the  night  in  which  He  was  betrayed,  took  bread; 
^■^  and  when  He  had  given  thanks,  He  brake  and  gave  it  to  His  disciples, 
saying,  Take,  eat;  this  is  My  body,  which  is  given  for  you;  this  do  in  remem- 
brance of  Me. 

After  the  same  manner,  also,  He  took  the  cup,  when  He  had  supped, 
and  when  He  had  given  thanks.  He  gave  it  to  them,  saying.  Drink  ye  all  of  it ; 
this  cu])  is  the  New  Testament  in  My  blood,  which  is  shed  for  you,  and  for 
many,  for  the  remission  of  sins;  this  do,  as  oft  as  ye  drink  it,  in  remembrance 
of  Me. 


IP* 


RAISE,  and  honor,  and  glory,  be  unto  Thee,  O  Christ!  The  bread  which 
we  bless  is  the  communion  of  Thy  holy  body,  and  the  cup  which  we  bless 
is  the  communion  of  Thy  holy  blood.  O  Thou  everlasting  Son  of  the  Father, 
sanctify  us  by  Thy  Holy  Spirit,  and  make  us  worthy  partakers  of  Thy  sacred 
body  and  blood,  that  we  may  be  cleansed  from  sin  and  made  one  with  all  the 
members  of  Thy  Church  in  heaven  and  on  earth.  Lord  Jesus!  Thou  hast 
bought  us:  to  Thee  will  we  live,  to  Thee  will  we  die,  and  Thine  will  we  be. 
forever.     Amen.

TITIl  ^^OSOEVER  will  be  saved,  before  all  things  it  is  necessary  that  he  hold 
^^'^^     the  Catholic  [true  Christian]  Faith, 

2.  \\'hich  Faith  except  every  one  do  keep  whole  and  iindefiled,  without  doubt 
he  shall  perish  everlastingly. 

3.  And  the  Catholic    [true  Christian]    Faith  is  this :    that  we  worship  one 
God  in  Trinity,  and  lYinity  in  Unity; 

4.  Neither  confounding  the  Persons,  nor  dividing  the  Substance. 

5.  For  there  is  one  Person  of  the  Father,  another  of  the  Son,  and  another 
of  the  Holy  (ihost. 

6.  But  the  Godhead  of  the  Father,  of  the  Son,  and  of  the   Holy  Ghost,  is 
all  one:    the  Glory  Equal,  the  Majesty  Coeternal. 

7.  Such  as  the  Father  is,  such  is  the  Son,  and  such  is  the  Holy  Ghost. 

8.  The  Father  uncreate,  the  Son  uncreate,  and  the  Holy  Ghost  uncreate. 

9.  The  Father  incomprehensible,  the  Son  incomprehensible,  and  the  Holy 
Ghost  incomprehensible. 

10.  The  Father  eternal,  the  Son  eternal,  and  the  Holy  Ghost  eternal. 

11.  And  yet  they  are  not  three  Eternals,  but  one  Eternal. 

12.  As  there  are  not    three    uncreated,  nor    three    incomprehensibles :    but 
one  uncreated  and  one  incomprehensible. 

13.  So  likewise  the  Father  is  Almighty,  the  Son  Almighty,  and  the  Holy 
(ihost  Almighty. 

14.  And  yet  they  are  not  three  Almighties,  but  one  Almighty. 

15.  So  the  Father  is  God,  the  Son  is  God,  and  the  Holy  Ghost  is  God. 

16.  And  yet  they  are  not  three  Gods,  but  one  God. 

17.  So  likewise  the  Father  is  Lord,  the  Son  Lord,  and  the  Holy  Ghost  Lord. 

18.  And  yet  not  three  Lords,  but  one  Lord. 

19.  For  like  as  wc  are  comijelled  by  the  Christian  X'criiy:    to  acknowledge 
every  Person  by  Himself  to  be  God  and  Lord; 

So  are  wc  forbidden  by  the  Catholic  [Christian]  Religion  to  say.  There 
be  three  Gods,  or  three  Lords. 

20.  'I'he  Father  is  made  of  none:    neither  created  nor  begotten. 

21.  The  Son  is  of  the  Father  alone:    not  made,  nor  created,  but  begotten. 

22.  The    Holy   Ghost   is  of  the   Father,  and  of  the  Son:    neither  made,  nor 
created,  nor  begotten,  but  proceeding. 

23.  So   there   is  one   Father,  not   three  I'Mthcrs;   one   Son.  not    three   Sons; 
o«e  Holy  (ihost,  not  three  Holv  Ghosts 


XTbe  ©r^er  ot"  /IDoruiuii  Serv^lce  xxxi 

24.  And  in  this  Trinity  none  is  before,  or  after  other :  none  is  greater,  or 
less  than  another ; 

25.  But  the  whole  three  Persons  arecoeternal  together,  and  coeciual :  So  that 
in  all  things,  as  is  aforesaid,  the  Unity  in  Trinity,  and  the  Trinity  in  Unity,  is 
to  be  worshipped. 

26.  He  therefore  that  will  be  saved  must  thus  think  of  the  Trinity. 

27.  Furthermore,  it  is  necessay  to  Everlasting  Salvation  that  we  also  believe 
rightly  the  Incarnation  of  our  Lord  Jesus  Christ. 

28.  For  the  right  Faith  is,  that  we  believe  and  confess  that  our  Lord  Jesus 
Christ,  the  Son  of  God,  is  God  and  Man ; 

29.  God,  of  the  Substance  of  the  Father,  begotten  before  the  worlds:  and 
Man,  of  the  Substance  of  His  mother,  born  in  the  world ; 

30.  Perfect  God,  and  perfect  Man,  of  a  reasonable  soul  and  human  flesh 
subsisting. 

31.  Equal  to  the  Father,  as  touching  His  Godhead:  and  inferior  to  the 
Father,  as  touching  His  Manhood. 

32.  Who  although  He  be  God  and  Man,  yet  He  is  not  two,  but  one  Christ; 

33.  One,  not  by  conversion  of  the  Godhead  into  flesh,  but  by  taking  the 
Manhood  into  God ; 

34.  One  altogether,  not  by  confusion  of  Substance,  but  by  Unity  of  Person. 

35.  For  as  the  reasonable  soul  and  flesh  is  one  man,  so  God  and  Man  is  one 
Christ; 

36.  Who  suffered  for  our  Salvation,  descended  into  hell,  rose  again  the  third 
day  from  the  dead. 

37.  He  ascended  into  heaven;  He  sitteth  on  the  right  hand  of  the  Father, 
God  Almighty ;   from  whence  He  shall  come  to  judge  the  quick  and  the  dead. 

38.  At  whose  coming  all  men  shall  rise  again  with  their  bodies,  and  shall 
give  account  for  their  own  works. 

39.  And  they  that  have  done  good  shall  go  into  life  everlasting:  and  they 
that  have  done  evil,  into  everlasting  fire. 

40.  This  is  the  Catholic  [true  Christian]  Faith:  which  except  a  man  believe 
faithfully,  he  cannot  be  saved.

hvnins,  ps;ihns  and  special  versicles.  When  another  than  the  Twenty-third  Psalm, 
which  is  printed  in  the  body  of  the  Service,  is  to  be  used,  and  the  church  has  no 
hyinnboard.  the  TSAI.M  (and  on  festival  days  the  s])ecial  ViCRSlCM-:)  may  be  announced 
in  connection  with  the  first  hymn,  and  the  Canticle  with  the  announcement  of  the 
hymn  after  the  sermon. 

Selection  Ot  P^alniB.  For  festival  services  the  following  distril^ution  is 
suggeste<l :  lor  the  Advent  Season,  Ps.  i  or  24 ;  for  Christmas,  Ps.  122;  for  the 
Epiphany  Se;ison,  Ps.  100;  for  the  Passion  Season,  Ps.  6;  for  Easter,  Ps.  100;  for 
Ascension  Day,  Ps.  24;  for  Whitsuntide,  Ps.  48;  for  the  Reformation  Festival,  Ps.  46. 

llOW  Pt5alni6  arc  to  be  1Rcn^CrC^.  The  Psai.ms  were  meant  to  be  sung  and 
have  been  sung  in  the  Church,  both  of  the  Old  Dispeiusation  and  of  the  New.  But 
where  congregations  are  not  yet  prepared  to  sing  them  acceptabh-,  they  may  be  read 
responsively,  as  may  any  other  part  of  the  Service. 

The  PSALM.S  are  to  be  sung  resjjonsively,  one  leading  voice  as  precentor  or  a  part 
of  the  choir  intoning  the  first  half  of  each  verse,  and  the  full  choir  and  congregation 
chanting  the  second  half.  The  Gloria  P.\TRI  at  the  end  of  each  Ps.\LM  is  sung  by 
all  together,  as  is  also  every  verse  of  the  Caxticlk.  The  melodies  are  very  simple 
and  are  easily  learned,  but  entire  familiarity  with  both  the  music  and  the  words  is 
esst-ntial  lo  eood  chanting. 

CbC  /B^ll^lC  of  tbC  Service.  Two  complete  settings  are  furnished.  The  first 
is  the  simi)le,  churchly  Plain  Song  or  (»regorian  music,  without  bars  or  measure  or 
nb.solute  time  value  of  the  notes.  I'orasmuch,  then,  as  this  is  musical  declamation, 
governe<l  by  the  rules  which  apply  to  gcK)d  declamation  in  speech,  it  follows  that  the 
resjMJtises  may  be  sung  ])y  those  who  have  learned  the  niel(Mlies  and,  at  the  same  time, 
s|x»ken  by  those  who  are  not  able  to  sing  them,  so  that  the  whole  congregation  can 
take  active  ]>art  in  the  entire  Service.  The  second  setting  is  the  Anglican  music, 
which  may  be  used  by  tluwe  who  ]>refer  it  to  tlie  Gregorian.  It  is  based  chiefly  on 
Tall  Is' s  Resix>nses. 

l^Ule^  for  CbanttlHl'  fhe  following  suggestions  for  chanting  the  Service  may

Chant  the  text  as  you  wouM  siK-ak  it.  neither  too  rapidly,  nor  t<K>  slowly.

Hymn. 

Versicle  :  How  amiable  are  Thy  tabernacles,  O  Lord  of  hosts !  My  soul 
longetli,  yea,  even  fainteth  for  the  courts  of  the  Lord.  For  a  day  in  Thy  courts 
is  better  than  a  thousand  (Ps.  94:  i,  2,  10.  ).  One  thing  have  I  desired  of  the 
Lord,  that  will  I  seek  after;  that  I  may  dwell  in  the  house  of  the  Lord  all  the 
days  of  my  life,  to  behold  the  beauty  of  the  Lord,  and  to  inquire  in  His  tem- 
ple (Ps.  27:    4.) 

Prayer:  Almighty  and  most  merciful  God,  we  are  now  assembled  in  Thy 
presence  to  hear  all  that  shall  be  spoken  in  Thy  name  and  by  Thy  command ; 
we  pray  Thee :  grant  that  we  may  receive  Thy  Word  with  "true  devotion  and 
faithfully  keep  it.  Remove  from  us  all  vain  and  sinful  thoughts,  and  open  our 
hearts  by  Thy  Holy  Spirit,  that  through  the  preaching  of  71iy  blessed  Word  we 
may  be  made  truly  to  know  Thy  will,  and  to  conform  our  lives  thereto,  to  the 
praise  and  glory  of  Thy  holy  name,  and  to  the  salvation  of  our  souls;  through 
Jesus  Christ  our  Lord  and  Savior.     Amen.

36aptiem  in  Caeee  of  IRecceeiti? 

1  When  a  new  iwifj  chilii  is  in  (/anger  of  death,  the  Minister  should  be  promptly  called  to 
baptizt  it.  In  such  case  he  shall  use  so  much  of  the  common  Order  for  Baptism  as  the  circum- 
stances allo7i>.  But  -ivliere  the  danger  is  very  great,  and  no  Minister  is  7vithin  reach,  the  father 
of  the  child,  or  some  other  Christian  man  or  woman,  may  baptize  it.  But  they  shall  not  do  so 
except  in  extreme  necessity,  ~uhen  the  folloiuing  Order  may  be  used : 

♦fTN    the  Name  of  the  Father,  and   of   the   Son,   and  of   the   Holy   Ghost. 
'■      Amen. 

Let  us  pray. 
/f%rR  Father,  Who  art  in  heaven;  Hallowed  be  Thy  Name;  Thy  kingdom 
^^  come ;  Thy  will  be  done  on  earth,  as  it  is  in  heaven ;  Give  us  this  day 
our  daily  bread  ;  And  forgive  us  our  trespasses,  as  we  forgive  those  who  trespass 
against  us;  And  lead  us  not  into  temptation;  But  deliver  us  from  evil;  For 
Thine  is  the  kingdom,  and  the  power,  and  the  glory,  for  ever  and  ever.  Amen. 
\    They  shall  then  baptize  the  child  with  ivater,  saying  : 

N.,  I  baptize  thee  in  the  Name  of  the  Father,  and  of  the  Son,  and  of  the 
Holy  Ghost. 

I^et  us  pray. 

ml.MK iHr\'  and  most  merciful  God  and  Father,  we  thank  Thee  that  Thou 
hast  granted  to  this  child  the  new  birth  in  Holy  I^ptism,  and  made  it 
Thy  ( hild,  and  heir  to  Thy  heavenly  kingdom.  If  it  be  Thy  will  to  preserve 
this  child  alive  and  to  restore  it  to  health,  we  humbly  beseech  Thee  to  defend 
and  keep  it  in  this  grace,  that,  according  to  all  Thy  good  pleasure,  it  may  be 
faithfully  and  savingly  brought  up  to  the  praise  and  honor  of  Thy  holy  Name. 
Hut  if  I'hou  wilt  take  it  out  of  this  world,  and  receive  it  unto  Thyself,  grant 
unto  Thy  servants  grace  to  be  still  and  know  that  Thou  art  God.  Thou,  God 
the  Father,  hast  created  it ;  Thou,  Cfod  the  Son,  hast  redeemed  it ;  Thou,  God 
the  Holy  Ghost,  hast  regenerated  it  Into  Thy  hands  we  commit  this  child. 
Amen. 

•^     This  iring  .i.'ne,  it  is  nrf  ro  re  aounied  that  the  child  is  truiy  captized. 

•■    Such  Baptism,  whether  the  child  live  or  die,  is  to  be  reported  to  the  Minister,  7vho  shall 

•     u-.'f  whether  the  child  was  properly  baptized  with  'water,  in  the  Name  of  the  Father,  and  of  the 

'      !nd  of  the   //oh   Ghost,    which  are  the  txvo  main  things  to  constitute  a  proper  Christian 

i.,ifi,m,  and  if  he  so  find,  he  shall  approve  it  as  a  true  Cltristian   Baptism,  and  enter  the  same 

in  the  records  of  the  Church. 

•I  If  the  (hild  (ontinue  to  live,  it  is  to  be  brought  to  the  C^'u*  h.  th.i'  thr  M,„ister  may

Ye      Chris-tians,  sound  the      peal!    Your  praise  and     horn  -  age  bring     Him, 


Look  up  !  ye  drooping  mourners, 

The  King  is  very  near ; 
Away  with  grief  and  sorrow, 

For  lo  I  our  Help  is  here. 
Behold,  in  holy  place — 

O  blessed  consolation  ! — 

We  find  Him,  our  Salvation, 
In  His  pure  means  of  grace. 

Arise  !  ye  much  afflicted, 

Your  King  is  not  afar ; 
Rejoice,  ye  long  dejected, 

Here  comes  the  Morning  vStar. 
The  Lord  is  with  us  now ; 

Though  troubles  here  distress  you, 

With  comfort  He  will  bless  you  : 
E'en  death  to  Him  shall  bow. 

Up.  up  !  ye  faint  and  fearful, 

The  King  now  comes  with  might ; 

His  heart  hath  long  since  loved  us, 
And  makes  our  darkness  light. 

Now  are  our  sorrows  o'er; 
No  wrath  shall  e'er  befall  us, 
Since  God  in  grace  doth  call  us 

His  children  evermore. 


5  Haste  then,  with  eager  footsteps j 

To  see  your  Sovereign  ;  there 
He  rides  as  King  of  Zion, 

Strong,  glorious,  meek,  and  fair. 
Draw  near  the  Lord,  and  give 

Him  your  heart's  salutation. 

Who  bringeth  great  salvation, 
And  bids  the  sinner  live. 

6  Our  Sovereign  still  remembers 

His  loved  ones  here  below 
With  gifts  of  royal  treasures. 

Yea,  doth  Himself  bestow 
Through  His  blest  Word  and  grace; 

O  King,  arrayed  in  splendor. 

To  Thee  all  praise  we  render. 
Here,  and  there  face  to  face. 

7  Lord,  how  Thou  dost  enrich  us! 

Thyself  made  ])Oor  and  weak  ; 
O  Love  beyond  exjiression, 

That  can  thus  sinners  seek  ! 
What  can  we  do  for  Thee? 

We  will  love's  tribute  bring  Thee, 

And  glad  hosannas  sing  Thee, 
And  ever  grateful  be.

With  palms  doth  Zion  meet  Thee, 

Spreads  branches  in  the  way  ; 
To  raise  my  soul  to  greet  Thee 

Glad  psalms  I'll  sing  to-day. 
My  heart  shall  bloom  forever 

With  joys  and  praises  new, 
And  from  Thy  Name  shall  never 

Withhold  the  honor  due. 

What  hast  Thou  e'er  neglected 

For  my  gCKxl  here  below? 
When  heart  and  soul  dejected, 

Were  sunk  in  deepest  woe, 
When  from  Thy  presence  hidden, 

Where  peace  and  pleasures  are, 
Thou  earnest,  and  hast  bidden 

Me  joy  again,  my  Star ! 

In  bitter  bondage  lying 

Thou  com'st  and  sett'st  me  free. 
'Neath  scorn  and  shame  when  sighing. 

Thou  com'st  and  raisest  me. 
Thy  grace  high  honor  gives  me, 

Abundance  doth  bestow, 
That  wastes  not,  nor  deceives  me, 

As  earthly  riches  do. 

Rev 


No  other  impulse  led  Thee 

To  leave  Thy  throne  above, 
Upon  Thine  errand  sped  Thee, 

But  world-embracing  love ! 
A  love  that  deeply  feeleth 

The  wants  and  wees  of  men. 
No  tongue  its  fullness  telleth, 

It  passeth  human  ken. 

6  Sin's  debt  and  mighty  burden, 

Let  not  thy  heart  affright ; 
The  Lord  will  freely  pardon, 

His  grace  will  cover  quite. 
He  comes  !  He  comes  !  salvation 

Proclaiming  everv-where. 
Secures  His  chosen  nation 

Their  heritage  so  fair. 

7  Thy  foes,  why  should  they  move  Thee? 

Their  wiles  and  rage  are  vain, 
Thy  Savior,  who  doth  love  thee. 

Will  scatter  them  again. 
O  come.  Thou  Son,  and  lead  us 

To  everlasting  light ; 
Up  to  Thy  mansions  guide  us 

Of  glory  and  delight.

3  Shall  we  still  dread  God's  displeasure, 

WTio  to  save  freely  gave 
Up  His  dearest  Treasure? 

Who  from  all  the  ills  that  grieve  us, 
In  His  love  from  above 

Sends  Him  to  relieve  us? 

4  Should  He,  who  Himself  imparted, 

Aught  withhold  from  the  fold. 
Leave  us  broken-hearted  ? 

Should  the  Son  of  God  not  love  us, 
WTio  to  cheer  suff 'rers  here 

Left  His  throne  above  us? 

5  If  our  blessed  Lord  and  Maker 

Hated  men,  would  He  then 
Be  of  flesh  partaker  ? 

If  He  in  our  woe  delighted. 
Would  He  bear  all  the  care 

Of  our  race  benighted  ? 

6  He  becomes  the  Lamb  that  taketh 

Sin  away,  and  for  aye 
Full  atonement  maketh. 

For  our  life  His  own  He  tenders, 
And  our  race,  by  His  grace, 

Meet  for  glory  renders. 

7  Lowly  lies  He  in  the  manger. 

And  to  all  sends  the  call : 
Ye  are  freed  from  danger ; 

Cease  your  wailing  in  your  weakness, 
All  your  stains,  all  your  pains, 

I  have  borne  in  meekness. 

8  Come,  then,  banish  all  your  sadness, 

One  and  all,  great  and  small, 
Come  with  songs  of  gladness ; 

Love  Him  who  with  love  is  glowing. 
View  the  star,  near  and  far 

Light  and  joy  bestowing. 


9  Ye  whose  anguish  knew  no  measure. 
Grieve  no  more,  see  the  door 

To  celestial  pleasure  : 

Come,  He  will  your  journey  gladden 

To  the  rest  of  the" blest. 
Where  no  sin  shall  sadden. 

10  Ye  whom  conscience  sorely  troubles, 

All  whose  toil,  pain  to  foil, 
But  its  wrath  redoubles, 

Hither  come  with  all  your  bruises 
Here  is  One  who  to  none 

Healing  balm  refuses. 

11  Come  all  ye  whom  want  oppresses. 

Here  behold  gems  and  gold, 
All  He  freely  blesses. 

Come  and  taste  that  He  is  gracious — 
To  our  hearts  He  imparts 

Jewels  rare  and  precious. 

12  Let  me  in  my  arms  receive  Thee, 

On  Thy  breast  let  me  rest. 
Savior,  ne'er  to  leave  Thee ! 

Since  Thou  hast  Thyself  presented 
Now  to  me,  I  shall  be 

Evermore  contented. 

13  Now  that  Thou  my  nature  wearest 

Guilt  no  more  racks  me  sore — 
Thou  its  burden  bearest. 

Now  from  every  spot  and  wrinkle 
I  am  free,  since  Thou  me 

With  Thy  blood  dost  sprinkle. 

14  I  am  pure  in  Thee;  believing. 

From  Thy  store  evermore 
Richest  robes  receiving. 

In  my  heart  I  will  enfold  Thee,. 
Treasure  rare  !  Let  me  there 

Raptured  ever  hold  Thee  ! 

15  Thee  I  will  depart  from  never 

While  I've  breath,  nor  shall  death 
From  Thy  love  me  sever  ! 

And  in  heaven,  by  saints  surrounded, 
I  shall  be  still  with'Thee, 

Tasting  bliss  unbounded !

2  To  you  this  night  is  born  a  child 
Of  Mary,  chosen  mother  mild  ; 
This  little  child,  of  lowly  birth. 
Shall  l)e  the  joy  of  all  the  earth. 

3  'Tis  Christ,  our  God,  who  far  on  high 
Hath  heard  your  sad  and  l)itter  cry  ; 
Himself  will  your  salvation  lx% 
Himself  from  sin  will  make  you  free. 

\  He  brings  those  blessings,  long  ago 
rrei>ared  by  God  for  all  ])elow  ; 
Henceforth  His  kingdom  open  stands 
To  you,  as  to  the  angel  bands. 


7  Give  heed,  my  heart,  lift  uj)  thine  eyes! 
Who  is  it  in  yon  manger  lies? 

Who  is  this  child  so  young  and  fair? 
The  blessed  Chri.st-child  lieth  there. 

8  Welcome  to  earth.  Thou  noble  Guest, 
Through  whom  the  sinful  world  is  blest ! 
Thou  com'st  to  share  our  misery, 
What  can  we  render.  Lord,  to  Thee! 

9  Ah,  Lord,  who  hast  created  all, 

How  hast  Thou  made  Thee  weak  and  small, 
That  Thou  must  choose  Thy  infant  bed 
Where  ass  and  ox  but  lately  fe<l ! 


.')  These  are  the  tokens  ye  shall  mark,  1(»  Were  earth  a  thou.sand  times  as  fair, 

The  swaddling  clothes  and  manger  dark  ;        Reset  with  gold  and  jewels  rare. 
There  shall  ye  find  the  young  cliild  laid.        She  yet  were  far  too  jxjor  to  l)e 
liy  whom  the  heavens  and  earth  were  made,       A  narrow  cradle,  Ix)rd,  for  Thee. 


6  Now  let  us  all  with  gladsome  cheer 
Hollow  the  shepherds,  and  draw  near 
To  see  this  wondrous  gift  of  G<k1, 
Wlu)  hiith  His  only  Son  lK?stowe<l. 


1    I-'or  velvets  soft  aud  silken  stuff, 
Thou  hast  but  hay  and  straw  so  rough, 
Whereon  Thou  King,  so  rich  and  great. 
As  'twere  Thy  heaven,  art  throned  in  state.

(Ibri5tmas 


12  Thus  hath  it  pleased  Thee  to  make  plain 
The  truth  to  us  poor  fools  and  vain, 
That  this  world's  honor,  wealth,  and  might 
Are  naught  and  worthless  in  Thy  sight. 

13  Ah,  dearest  Jesus,  Holy  Child, 
Make  Thee  a  bed,  soft,  undefiled, 
Within  my  heart,  that  it  may  be 
A  quiet  chamber  kept  for  Thee. 


14  ]My  heart  for  very  joy  doth  leap, 
My  lips  no  more  can  silence  keep ; 
I  too  must  raise  with  joyful  tongue 
That  sweetest  ancient  cradle-song  : 

15  Glory  to  God  in  highest  heaven, 
Who  unto  man  His  Son  hath  given ! 
While  angels  sing  with  pious  mirth 
A  glad  New  Year  to  all  the  earth.

ERFURT       L.  M. 


1  To  Shepherds,  as  they  watched  by  night, 
Appeared  a  troop  of  angels  bright ; 
Behold  the  tender  babe,  they  said, 

In  yonder  lowly  manger  laid, 

2  At  Bethlehem  in  David's  town. 

As  Micah  did  of  old  make  known  ; 
'Tis  Jesus  Christ,  your  Lord  and  King, 
Who  doth  to  all  salvation  bring. 

3  Rejoice  ye,  then,  that  through  His  vSon 
God  is  with  sinners  now  at  one ; 

Made  like  yourselves  of  flesh  and  blood, 
Your  brother  is  th'  eternal  Good. 


4  W^hat  harm  can  sin  and  death  then  do? 
The  true  God  now  abides  with  you  : 
Let  Hell  and  Satan  chide  and  chafe, 
God  is  your  brother — ye  are  safe. 

5  Not  one  He  will  nor  can  forsake 
AVho  Him  his  confidence  doth  make : 
Let  all  his  wiles  the  tempter  try. 
You  may  his  utmost  powers  defy. 

6  You  must  at  last  prevail ;  for  see, 
God's  kindred  now-  in  Christ  are  we. 
To  God  forever  give  ye  praise, 
Patient  and  cheerful  all  your  days.

A  sen-ant's  fonn  vouchsafed  to  take, 
That  He  as  man  mankind  might  win, 
And  save  His  creatures  from  their  sin. 

3  The  grace  of  God,  the  mighty  Lord, 
On  the  chaste  mother  was  outpoured ; 
A  virgin  pure  and  undefiled 

In  wondrous  wise  conceived  a  child. 

4  The  holy  maid  became  th' abode 
And  temple  of  the  living  God, 

And  she,  who  knew  not  man,  was  blest 
With  God's  own  Word  made  manifest.

When  John  confessed,  and  leapt  with  joy. 
Ere  yet  the  mother  knew  her  boy. 

6  In  a  rude  manger  stretched  on  hay, 
In  poverty  content  He  lay  ; 

With  milk  was  fed  the  Lord  of  all. 
Who  feeds  the  ravens  when  they  call. 

7  Th' angelic  choirs  rejoice,  and  raise 
Their  voice  to  God  in  songs  of  praise ; 
To  humble  shepherds  is  proclaimed 
The  vShepherd  who  the  world  hath  framed. 

8  Honor  to  Thee.  O  Christ,  be  paid, 
Pure  offspring  of  a  holy  maid, 
With  Father,  and  the  Holy  Ghost, 
Till  time  in  time's  abyss  be  lost.

2  He  comes  from  His  loved  Father's  side, 

Becomes  an  infant  small. 
And  lies  with  scarce  a  want  supplied 
Weak  in  an  humble  stall. 

3  His  power  divine  aside  is  laid, 

No  crown  adorns  His  brow  ; 
The  mighty  God  who  all  things  made 
Comes  as  a  ser\'ant  now.

Her  precious  nursling  boy.

Through  whom  and  by  whose  grace  divine

6  A  wonderful  exchange  He  makes. 

He  puts  on  flesh  and  blood. 
Then  gives  us  back  in  what  He  takes, 
His  Godhead  as  our  good. 

7  He  serves,  that  I  a  lord  may  be. 

And  gives  His  life  for  mine  ; 
How  could  His  love  do  more  for  me? 
O  mystery  divine ! 

8  To-day  He  opens  us  the  door 

Of  blissful  Paradise, 
The  cherub  threatens  there  no  more ;

2  To  David's  city  let  us  fly, 

Where  angels  sing  beneath  the  sky  ; 
Through  plain  and  village  pressing  near, 
And  news  from  (iod  with  shepherds  hear. 

3  O  let  us  go  with  quiet  mind, 

The  gentle  Babe  with  shepherds  find, 
To  gaze  on  Hnn  who  gladdens  them, 
The  loveliest  flower  of  Jesse's  stem. 

4  The  lowly  Savior  meekly  lies, 
Laid  off  the  splendor  of  the  skies ; 
No  crown  bedecks  His  forehead  fair, 
No  jjearl,  nor  gem,  nor  silk  is  there. 

5  No  human  glory,  might,  and  gold. 
The  lovely  Infant's  form  enfold; 
The  manger  and  the  swaddlings  ]X)or 
Arc  His,  uboni  :iiii^M-rs  songs  adore. 


6  O  wake  our  hearts,  in  gladness  sing, 
And  keep  our  Christmas  with  our  King, 
Till  living  song,  from  loving  souls. 
Like  sound  of  mighty  water  rolls ! 

7  O  holy  Child,  Th}'  manger  gleams 
Till  ea'rth  and  heaven  glow  with  its  beams, 
Till  midnight  hath  noon's  brightness  won, 
And  Jacob's  Star  outshines  the  sun. 

8  Thou  Patriarch's  joy.  Thou  Prophet's  song, 
Thou  heav'nly  Day-Spring  looked  for  long. 
Thou  Son  of  Man,  Incarnate  Word, 
Great  David's  Son,  great  David's  Lord! 

9  Come,  Jesus,  glorious  heav'nly  Guest, 
Keep  Thine  own  Christmas  in  our  breast; 
Then  David's  har])-slrings.  hushed  so  long, 
Shall  swell  our  jubilee  of  song.

Descending  from  on  high  ; 
And  Cherubim  to  shepherds 
Sing  anthems  from  the  sky,

"To  God  on  high  be  glor}-,

4  Uliile  thus  they  sing  your  Monarch, 
Those  bright  angelic  bands, 

From  the  Greek  of  St.  Anatolius 


Rejoice,  3'e  vales  and  mountains! 
Ye  oceans,  clap  your  hands  ! 

5  Since  all  He  comes  to  ransom. 

By  all  be  He  adored, 
The  Infant  born  in  Bethlehem, 
The  Savior  and  the  Lord  ! 

6  And  idol-forms  shall  perish, 

And  error  shall  decay. 
And  Christ  shall  wield  His  scepter, 
Our  Lord  and  God  for  aye.

Breathed  sweetly  on  their  ear :

In  humblest  weeds  arrayed  ; 
All  meanly  wrapped  in  swaddling  clothes 
And  in  a  manger  laid." 

6  He  ceased,  and  sudden  all  around 

Appeared  a  radiant  throng 
Of  angels,  praising  God,  and  thus 
They  sang  their  choral  song  : 

7  "  Glory  to  God,  from  whom  on  high,

Who  sends  His  heav'n-descended  peace

2  Thine  infant  cries,  O  lyord, 

Thy  tears  upon  the  breast, 
Are  not  enough, — the  legal  sword 
Must  do  its  stern  behest. 

3  Am  I  a  child  of  tears. 

Cradled  in  care  and  woe? 
And  seems  it  hard  my  vernal  years 
Few  vernal  joys  can  show  ? 


4  Seemeth  it  strange  to  me 

My  own  will  to  deny  ? 
Seemeth  it  sad,  my  soul,  to  thee, 
Under  the  yoke  to  lie? 

5  I  look,  and  hold  my  peace : 

The  Giver  of  all  good 
E'en  from  the  womb  takes  no  release 
From  suffering,  tears  and  blood. 


6  That  I  may  reap  in  love. 
Help  me  to  sow  in  fear : 
So  life  a  winter's  morn  may  prove 
To  a  bright,  endless  year.

Pious  and  blest  from  year  to  year.

Jesus,  from  tempting  thoughts  protect  me; 

Jesus,  be  all  my  heart's  desire  ;

Nor  suffer  me  to  fall  away.

That  it  for  me  in  peace  may  close ;

2  The  Eastern  sages,  bringing 

Their  tribute-gifts  to  Thee, 
Bear  witness  to  Thy  kingdom, 

And  humbly  bow  the  knee. 
The  Eastern  star  points  to  Thee, 

As  doth  the  inspired  Word, 
Hence  joyously  we  hail  Thee  : 

Our  blest  Redeemer,  Lord  ! 

3  Thou  art  a  mighty  Monarch, 

As  by  the  Word  we're  told, 
Yet  carest  Thou  but  little 

For  earthly  goods  or  gold ; 
On  no  proud  steed  Thou  ridest. 

Thou  wear'st  no  jeweled  crown, 
Nor  dwell'st  in  lordly  castle. 

But  bearest  scoff  and  frown. 

-4  Yet  art  Thou  decked  with  beauty. 
With  rays  of  glorious  light ; 
Thou  ever  teem'st  with  goodness. 
And  all  Thy  ways  are  right. 


i 


Youchsafe  to  shield  Thy  people 
With  Thy  almighty  arm, 

That  they  may  dwell  in  safety 
From  those  who  mean  but  harm, 

5  Ah,  look  on  me  with  pity. 

Though  I  am  weak  and  poor, 
Admit  me  to  Thy  kingdom, 

To  dwell  there,  blest  and  sure. 
Youchsafe  to  keep  and  guide  me 

Safe  from  all  evil  foes, 
From  sin,  and  death,  and  Satan; 

Free  me  from  all  my  woes. 

6  And  bid  Thy  Word  within  me 

Shine  as  the  fairest  star ; 
Keep  sin  and  all  false  doctrine 

From  all  Thy  people  far ; 
Help  us  confess  Thee  truly, 

And  with  Thy  Christendom, 
Here  own  Thee  King  and  Savior 

And  in  the  world  to  come.

Light  of  the  Gerttile  nations, 

Thy  people's  joy  and  love, 
Drawn  by  Thy  Spirit  hither, 

We  gladly  come  to  prove 
Thy  presence  in  Thy  temple. 

And  wait  with  earnest  mind, 
As  Simeon  once  had  waited 

His  Savior  God  to  find. 

Yes,  Lord,  Thy  ser\'ants  meet  Thee, 

E'en  now,  in  ev'ry  place. 
Where  Thy  true  Word  has  promised. 

That  the'y  should  see  Thy  face. 
Thou  yet  wilt  gently  grant  us. 

Who  gather  round  Thee  here. 
In  faith's  strong  arms  to  bear  Thee, 

As  once  that  ag^d  seer. 

Be  Thou  our  joy.  our  brightness 
That  shines  'mid  pain  and  loss. 

Our  sun  in  times  of  terror, 
The  glory  round  our  cross  ; 


A  glow  in  sinking  spirits, 
A  sunbeam  in  distress, 

Physician,  friend  in  sickness,. 
In  death  our  happiness. 

4  Let  us,  O  Lord,  be  faithful 

With  Simeon  to  the  end. 
That  so  his  dying  song  may 

From  all  our  hearts  ascend  : 
"  O  Lord,  now  let  Thy  servant 

Depart  in  peace,  I  pray. 
Since  I  have  seen  my  Savior, 

And  have  beheld  His  day."^ 

5  My  Savior.  I  behold  Tl'.ee 

Now  with  the  eye  of  faith  ; 
No  foe  of  Thee  can  rob  me. 

Though  bitter  words  he  saith  ; 
Within  Thy  heart  abiding. 

As  Thou  dost  dwell  in  me. 
No  pain,  no  death  has  terrors 

To  part  my  soul  from  Thee  !

His  love  what  mortal  thought  can  reach?  4  Dear  Lord,  while  we  adoring  pay 

\\Tiat  mortal  tongue  display  ?  Our  humble  thanks  to  Thee, 

Imagination's  utmost  stretch  May  every  heart  with  rapture  say, 

In  wonder  dies  awav.  "The  Savior  died  for  me  !  " 


3  He  left  His  radiant  throne  on  high, 
Left  the  bright  realms  of  bliss. 
And  came  to  earth  to  bleed  and  die — 
Was  ever  love  like  this? 


5  O  may  the  sweet,  the  blissful  theme 
Fill  every  heart  and  tongue, 
Till  strangers  love  Thy  charming  Name, 
And  join  the  sacred  song !

And  free  them  from  this  danger.

To  thee  shall  now  Ikt  given 
Tair  treasures  that  far  greater  be 

Than  earth,  and  sea,  and  heaven.

Myrrh,  calamus,  and  cassia! 

Far  better  I  discover. 
My  priceless  treasure  is,  O  Thou 
My  Jesus  !  what  so  freely  now 

From  Thy  wounds  floweth  over! 

•I  And  when  at  last  heav'n's  gate  I  see, 

And  taste  the  kingdom's  pleasure, 
This  bUxxl  shall  then  my  purple  be, 

I'll  clothe  me  in  this  treasure  ; 
It  shall  be  ♦l:en  my  glorious  crown, 
In  which  I'll  stand  before  the  throne 

Of  (»od.  with  none  to  blame  me  : 
And  as  a  bride  in  fair  array, 
I'll  stand  l)eside  my  Ix^rd  that  day.

2  David  once,  willi  heart  afllicted, 

Crossed  the  Kedron's  narrow  strand, 
Clouds  of  gloom  and  grief  about  him 

When  an  exile  from  his  land. 
Rut,  ()  Jesus!   l)lacker  now 
Bends  tlie  cloud  above  Tliy  brow,  5 

Hasting  to  death's  dreary  portals 
For  tile  shame  and  sin  of  mortals. 

3  See  how,  anj^uish -struck,  He  falleth 

Prostrate,  an<l  with  struggling  breath, 
Three  times  on  His  (io<l  Ih'  callelh, 

Praying  that  the  l>itter  death 
An«l  the  cup  of  doom  may  go; 
Still  He  cries,  in  all  His  woe  :  ^» 

Not  My  will,  but  Thine.  ()  Father— 
And  the  angels  round  Him  gather.

Battling  with  the  evil  |x)wer. 
Agonies  untold  as>;»il  Him. 

On  His  soul  the  arrows  shower; 

From  (he  Danish  of  Bishop 


All  the  garden  flowers  are  wet 
With  the  drojis  of  bloody  sweat. 
From  His  anguished  frame  distilling — 
World's  redemption  thus  fulfilling  ! 

But,  O  flowers,  so  sadly  watered 
By  this  ])ure  and  j^recious  dew. 
In  some  blessed  hour  your  blossoms

Eden's  Crarden  did  not  bear 
Aught  that  can  with  you  compare,

Makes  my  soul  the  heir  of  glory. 

When  as  flowers  themselves  I  wither, 
WheJi  I  droop  and  fade  like  grass. 
When  the  life-streams  through  my  pulses 

Dull  and  ever  duller  ])ass. 
When  at  last  they  cease  to  roll.

Bitter  strokes,  a  cruel  rod, 
Pain  and  scorn  were  heaped  upon  Thee,

Only  thus  for  me  to  win 
Rescue  from  the  bonds  of  sin  ;

Doth  atone  for  my  proud  mood  ; 

And  Thy  death  makes  dying  painless, 
All  Thy  ills  have  wrought  our  good ; 

Yea,  the  shame  Thou  didst  endure 

Is  my  honor  and  my  cure ; 

Thousand,  thousand  thanks  shall  be, 

Blessed  Jesus,  brought  to  Thee. 


Thou  didst  bear  the  smiting  only 

That  it  might  not  fall  on  me  ; 
Stoodest  falsely  charged  and  lonely, 

That  I  might  be  safe  and  free  ; 
Comfortless,  that  I  might  know 
Comfort  from  Thy  boundless  woe  ; 
Thousand,  thousand  thanks  shall  be,

5  There  for  all  that  wrought  our  pardon, 
For  Thy  sorrows  deep  and  sore. 
For  Thine  anguish  in  the  garden,

For  Thy  sad  and  cruel  death. 
For  that  last  most  bitter  cr>'. 
And  shall  praise  Thee,  Lord,  on  high.

How  hath  Thy  color  faded,

None  shone  so  brilliantly  ! 
Now  from  Thy  cheeks  has  vanished 

Tluir  color  once  so  fair; 
I'rom  Thy  red  lijjs  is  banished 

The  s])lendor  that  was  there. 
Death's  might  hath  all  things  taken.

Here  will  I  stand  beside  Thee, 

When  breaks  Thine  anguished  heart 


When  on  Thy  breast  is  sinking 
In  death's  last  fatal  grasp 

Thy  head,  e'en  then  unshrinking 
Thee  in  my  arms  I'll  clasp. 

7  Naught  ever  so  much  blesses, 

So  much  rejoices  me, 
As  when  in  Thy  distresses 

I  take  a  part  with  Thee. 
My  Life,  ah  !  were  it  ever 

Vouchsafed  me  at  Thy  cross 
My  spirit  to  deliver, 

How  blessed  were  my  loss  I 

8  Thanks  from  my  heart  I  offer 

Thee,  Jesus,  dearest  Friend, 
For  all  that  Thou  didst  suffer ; 

My  good  didst  Thou  intend. 
Ah  !  grant  that  I  may  ever 

To  Thy  truth  faith"ful  be. 
And,  in  the  last  death -shiver. 

May  I  be  found  in  Thee. 

9  When  hence  I  must  betake  me 

And  death  at  last  nmst  meet,

Thy  child  with  welcome  greet; 
When  terror  has  bereft  me 

Of  heart  and  ho]H.\  again. 
Lord!  from  my  woe  uplift  me, 

In  virtue  of  Thy  pain.

And  shield,  when  I  must  die;

words  a  -  mid    His    j^ain  He     said :  O      let  them  well    to  heart   be      laid ! 


2  "  I'ather,  forgive  these  men,"  He  spake, 

"  Tor  lo  !  they  know  not  what  they  do  ; 
Nor  of  my  sufferings  vengeance  take!  " 
And  when  we  sin  in  weakness,  too. 
For  us,  dear  Lord,  this  prayer  renew! 

3  He  th(^ught  u|x>n  the  thief,  and  said, 

"Thou  shalt  behold  my  Paradise 
With  me,  ere  yet  tliis  day  l)e  fled." 
Lord,  see  us  too  with  pitying  eyes, 
And  raise  us  from  our  miseries! 

4  His  mother  stfxxl  beside  Him  there; 
"  Heliold  thy  son  !   And  let  her  find 
A  son,  ()  Joiin,  in  thy  true  care." 

Ix)rd,  care  for  those  we  leave  behind. 
Nor  let  the  world  j>rove  all  unkind  ! 

6  Once  more  He  saith  :  "  I  thirst.  I  thirst ! ' 
O  rrince  of  Life!  that  we  might  be 


Rescued  from  death,  Thou  dar'st  the  worst. 
So  dost  Thou  long  to  set  us  free  ; 
Not  fruitless  be  that  thirst  in  Thee ! 

6  Again,  "My  Oo<l,  my  God."  He  cried, 

"Ah,  why  dost  Thou  forsake  me  thus?" 
Thou  art  forsaken  at  this  tide 

To  win  acceptance.  Lord,  for  us; 
O  comfort  deep  and  marvelous  ! 

7  He  saith  :  "Lo!  it  is  finished  now!" 

Savior,  Thy  perfect  work  is  done! 
O  make  us  faithful.  Lord,  as  Thou, 
No  trial  and  no  cross  to  shun. 
Till  all  Thou  lay'st  on  us  be  done. 

8  And  last :  "  My  Father,  to  Thine  hands 

My  parting  soul  I  now  commend." 
Lord,  when  my  s])irit  trembling  stands 
rjx>n  life's  verge,  this  cry  I  .send 
To  Thee,  and  with  Thv  words  I  end. 


IPassion 


9  Whoso  shall  ponder  oft  these  words 
When  long-past  sins  his  soul  alann, 
Shall  find  the  hope  Thy  cross  accords, 
And  in  Thy  grace  a  healing  balm 
That  brings  the  wounded  conscience  calm. 


10  Lord  Jesus  Christ,  who  diedst  for  us, 
This  one  thing  grant  us  evermore  : 
To  ponder  o'er  Thy  passion  thus, 
Till  truer,  deeper  than  before. 
We  learn  to  love  Thee  and  adore !

2  How  fiercely  the  arch-serpent  raged. 

When  Christ  his  might  contested  ! 
Yet  Christ,  though  all  hell's  hosts  enga^ 

Their  prowess  from  them  wrested. 
And  though  the  serpent  pricked  His  hee 
Yet  was  he  made  its  w^eight  to  feel ; 

His  head  is  bruised  forever. 

3  And  now  Christ  comes  to  life  again, 

And  breaks  death's  chain  asunder ; 
He  binds  the  foe,  takes  hell  amain, 

And  wrests  from  him  his  plunder. 
No  power  can  stay  the  Victor's  march, 
He  enters  the  triumphal  arch  : — 

All  must  succumb  before  Him. 

4  A  death  to  death,  to  hell  a  pest, 

Christ  is  become  by  dying ; 
Still  Satan  rages  without  rest 
With  murd'rous  will  and  lying. 


e¥=t 


9 


And  since  he  cannot  come  with  might, 
He  turns  accuser,  day  and  night ; 
,         But,  judged,  he  stands  rejected. 

5  The  Lord's  right  hand,  His  holy  arm, 

The  victory  retaineth  ; 
No  might  of  foes  can  Him  disarm. 

The  glory  His  remaineth. 
Now  sin  and  vSatan,  death  and  hell 
Are  ousted  from  their  citadel ; 

Their  wrath  is  fierce,  yet  pow'rless. 

6  The  Christ  of  God,  Clod's  vSon,  was  dead; 

But  lo.  He  ever  liveth  ! 
As  He  arose,  our  living  Head, 

So  life  to  us  He  giveth. 
Now,  who  believes  on  Jesus'  Word 
From  death  and  grave  shall  be  restored 

And  live,  e'en  though  he  dieth.

Hastcr 


7  He  who  with  Christ  arises  here 
Hy  faith  and  daily  sorrow, 
The  second  death  need  never  fear 

Heaven's  his  eternal  morrow. 
Death's  swallowed  up  in  victory, 
And  life  and  immortality 

Art-  hrouj^ht  to  light  by  Jesus, 


9  The  ancient  dragon,  with  his  brood, 

Is  hurled/  to  degradation  ; 
They  lay  a  mock,  with  scorn  subdued, 

When  Christ  rose  with  salvation. 
The  gain  of  our  triumphant  Head 
Is  ours,  His  members;    hence  we  dread 

No  more  the  serpent's  power. 


H)rgiveness,  peace,  joy,  righteousness,       10  O  death  !  where  is  thy  cruel  sting? 


On  earth  and  there  in  heaven — 
These  are  the  Haster-spoils  that  bless 

The  hearts  to  Jesus  given. 
So  we,  His  heirs,  wait  patiently 
Until  our  bodies  fashioned  be 

Like  His  own  glorious  body. 


O  grave  !  where  is  thy  ]K)wer? 
What  harm  to  us  can  Satan  bring 

Though  threatening  to  devour? 
Thanks  be  to  God  !  of  glorious  might, 
Who  conquered  for  us  in  this  fight 

Through  Jesus  Christ  our  Captain.

I  know  He  loves  me,  and  am  glad  : 
Though  all  the  world  were  dead  to  me. 
Enough,  O  Christ,  if  I  have  Thee. 
Hallelujah ! 


6  Strong  Champion !  for  this  comfort,  see ! 
The  whole  world  bringeth  thanks  to  Thee! 
And  once  we  too  shall  raise  above 
More  sweet  and  loud  the  song  we  love: 
Hallelujah !

2  No  son  of. man  could  conquer  death. 

Such  mischief  sin  had  wrought  us; 
For  innocence  dwelt  not  on  earth, 

And  therefore  death  had  brought  us 
Into  thralldom  from  of  old. 
And  ever  grew  more  strong  and  bold, — 
His  shadow  lay  athwart  us.     Hallelujah  ! 

3  But  Jesus,  God's  eternal  Son, 

Is  come  for  our  salvation. 
The  cause  of  death  H,e  has  undone, 

And  stopped  its  devastation  ; 
Ruined  all  his  right  and  claim, 
And  left  him  nothing  but  the  name, — 
His  sting  is  lost  forever.     Hallelujah ! 

4  It  was  a  strange  and  dreadful  strife, 

When  life  and  death  contended  ; 
The  victorv'  remained  with  life, 

The  reign  of  death  was  ended  : 
Holy  Scripture  plainly  saith, 
That  death  is  swallowed  up  by  death, 
Made  henceforth  a  derision.     Hallelujah  ! 


Here  the  true  Paschal  Lamb  we  see. 
Whom  God  so  freely  gave  us ; 

He  died  on  the  accursed  tree. 
So  strong  His  love  !  to  save  us  : 

See !  His  blood  doth  mark  our  door. 

Faith  points  to  it,  death  passes  o'er, — 

The  murd'rer  cannot  harm  us. 


6  So  let  us  keep  the  festival. 

Whereto  the  Lord  invites  us ; 
Christ  is  Himself  the  joy  of  all. 

The  sun  which  warms  and  lights  us  : 
By  His  grace  He  doth  impart 
Eternal  sunshine  to  the  heart, 
The  night  of  sin  is  ended.     Hallelujah  ! 

7  Then  let  us  feast  this  Easter-day 

On  the  true  Bread  of  heaven  ; 
The  Word  of  grace  hath  purged  away 

The  old  and  wicked  leaven  : 
Christ  alone  our  souls  will  feed. 
He  is  our  meat  and  drink  indeed  ; 
Faith  lives  upon  no  other.     Hallelujah!

Risen  with  the  risen  Lord? 
And,  released  from  sin's  dominion, 

Into  purer  regions  soared?

No  true  Piaster  ushered  in  ?

In  Him  rise,  at  once  bestir  thee, 
Still  press  on  and  persevere. 

Let  no  weariness  deter  thee. 
He  who  woke  thee  still  is  near. 

See  I  thy  Lord  Himself  is  risen. 

That  thou  mightest  also  rise 
And  emerge  from  sin's  dark  prison 

To  new  life  and  open  skies. 
Come  to  Him  who  can  unbind  thee 

And  reverse  thy  awful  d<^K>ni ; 
Come  to  Him,  and  leave  behind  thee

2  Let  me  entreat  Thee,  dearest  Friend, 
For  truly,  I  the  best  intend  : 

Thou  knowest  that  Thou  ever  art 
A  welcome  Guest  unto  my  heart. 

3  The  day  is  now  far  spent  and  gone, 
It  is  toward  ev'ning,  night  comes  on  ; 
O  bide  with  me  throughout  this  night, 
And  be  my  cheer,  Thou  Light  of  light.

4  Shine  in  my  soul  and  light  the  way 
That  leads  to  everlasting  day, 
That  I  may  never  he  misled. 

Though  sin's  dread  night  be  round  me  spread. 

5  And  when  I  on  my  death-bed  lie 
Help  me,  and  let  me  gently  die. 
O  stay  !   I  will  not  let  Thee  go! 

Thou  wilt  not  leave  me,  Lord,  I  know.

'1  Now  His  disciples  all  rejoice,    ' 

And  sing  His  praise  with  cheerful  voice 
Come,  let  us  grateful  off'rings  bring. 
Our  Brother  is  our  God  and  King. 

3  Ascended  to  His  throne  on  high, 
He  yet  to  us  is  always  nigh  ; 
True  God  and  man  He  ever  reigns, 
And  infinite  in  power  remains. 

4  Above  the  heav'ns  in  glory  raised, 
By  angel  hosts  forever  praised. 
All  creatures  His  dominion  own. 
He  holds  an  everlasting  throne. 


8  He  richest  consolation  gives, 
Who  once  was  dead  but  ever  lives ; 
He  captive  led  captivity, 

From  bitter  death  to  set  us  free. 

9  With  deepest  joy  our  voice  we  raise, 
And  sing  our  grateful  song  of  praise : 
Our  Brother,  our  own  flesh  and  bone, 
Is  God  and  King,  our  joy  alone. 

10  Through  Him  we  heirs  of  heaven  are  made ; 
O  Brother,  Christ !  extend  Thine  aid. 
That  we  may  ever  trust  in  Thee, 
And  live  by  faith  eternally. 


5  He  rules  and  reigns  at  God's  right  hand,  11  Amen,  amen,  O  Lord  !  we  crj' ; 
And  has  all  power  at  His  connnand ;  Do  Thou,  who  art  exalted  high. 

All  things  are  subject  to  His  rod—  In  Thy  pure  faith  preserve  our  hearts. 

The  vSon  of  man  and  Son  of  God.  And  shield  us  from  all  Satan's  darts. 


<j  The  world,  and  sin,  and  Satan  fell 
He  overthrew,  with  death  and  hell ; 
Dispute  who  will  His  mighty  reign, 
He  still  the  Victor  must  remain. 

7  The  man  who  trusts  in  Him  is  ble.st, 
.■\nd  finds  in  Him  eternal  rest: 
This  world's  allurements  we  despise, 
And  fix  on  Clirist  alone  our  eyes. 


12  Come,  blessed  Lord  !  to  judgment  come, 
And  take  us  to  our  glorious  home, 
That  all  our  woes  on  earth  may  cease. 
And  we  may  dwell  in  heav'nly  peace. 

13  A  glad  Amen  shall  close  our  song; 
Our  souls  for  rest  in  glory  h^"g, 
Where  we  with  angel-hosts  again 
Shall  sing  in  nobler  strains  Amen  !

Leave  Thy  heart  still  inly  near  me,  3 

Take  mine  hence  where  Thou  art  gone; 

Open  heav'n  to  me,  and  hear  me, 
When  to  Thee  I  cry  alone  ; 

When  I  cannot  pray,  O  plead 

With  Thy  Father  in  my  stead  ; 

Seated  now  at  God's  right  hand. 

Help  us  here,  Thy  faithful  band. 


Worldly  joys  I  cast  behind  me, 
Let  me  choose  the  better  part. 

And  though  mortal  chains  yet  bind  me, 
Heav'n  ward  tend  my  thoughts  and  heart 

That  my  time  through  faith  may  be 

Ordered  for  eternity ; 

Till  we  rise,  all  perils  o'er, 

Whither  Thou  hast  gone  before. 


4  Then  return,  the  promise  keeping. 
That  was  made  to  us  of  old  ; 
Raise  the  members  that  are  sleeping, 

Gnaw'd  of  death,  beneath  the  mould; 
Judge  the  evil  world  that  deems 
Thy  sure  words  but  empty  dreams ; 
And  for  all  our  sorrows  past 
J^et  us  know  Thy  joy  at  last.

2  Grant  our  heart  in  heav'nly  measure 
Wisdom,  counsel,  purity. 
That  we  ne\er  may  take  pleasure 

In  aught  but  what  pleases  Thee ; 
In  Thy  knowledge  make  us  whole, 
And  from  error  free  the  soul. 

3-  Let  us  trust  Thy  witness  wholly, 
That  we  are  the  sons  of  God, 
Who  rely  u])on  Him  solely, 

Wlien  they  pass  beneath  the  rod ; 
For  the  Father's  chastenings 
Bless  above  all  earthly  things. 

4  Prompt  us.  that  we  come  before  Him 

Joyously  with  hope  in  view. 
Sigh  in  us,  when  we  implore  Him, 

And  e'er  plead  for  us  anew ; 
Then  our  prayer  will  not  be  vain, 
And  our  faith  new  strength  will  gain. 

5  Should  our  soul  for  comfort  languish, 

And  despondency  grow  strong, 
That  the  heart  must  cry  in  anguish  : 

Heinrich   Held,  ca. 


"  O,  my  God,  my  God,  how  long  !  " 
Soothe  Thou  then  the  aching  breast. 
Grant  us  patience,  strength  and  rest. 

6  Mighty  Spirit  of  reliance ! 

Sure  Defence  in  all  our  need ! 
When  the  foe  bids  us  defiance, 

Bid  Thy  work  in  us  Godspeed  ! 
Grant  us  weapons  for  the  strife. 
And  with  vict'ry  crown  our  life. 

7  Guard  our  faith,  that  naught  molest  it- 

Satan,  death,  or  scornful  jeer — 
Let  no  power  from  us  wrest  it, 

Thou,  O  God,  our  trust  and  cheer! 
Though  our  heart  would  fain  say  nay, 
Be  Thy  Word  to  us  still  yea. 

8  And  when  life  with  death  is  blending, 

Then  assure  us  yet  the  more. 
As  the  heirs  of  life  unending, 

Of  the  glory  there  in  store, 
Which  can  never  be  expressed, 
But  with  which  we  shall  be  blest.

2  Give  to  Thy  Word  impressive  power, 
That  in  our  hearts,  from  this  good  hour, 

As  fire  it  may  be  glowing ; 
That  we  may  Thee  the  Father,  Son, 
And  Spirit,  on  one  common  throne, 
Confess,  Thy  glory  showing. 

O  stay  II  And  sway  6 

Our  souls  ever,  ||  That  they  never 
May  forsake  Thee, 
But  by  faith  their  refuge  make  Thee. 

3  Thou  Fountain  whence  all  wisdom  flows 
Which  God  on  pious  hearts  bestows, 

Grant  us  Thy  consolation. 
That  in  our  pure  faith's  unity, 
We  faithful  witnesses  may  be 
Of  grace  that  brings  salvation. 

Hear  us, ||  Cheer  us  7 

By  Thy  teaching,  ||  Let  our  preaching 
And  our  labor 
Praise  the  Lord  and  bless  our  neighbor. 

4  Direct  us  by  Thy  counsel  still. 
That  we  may  understand  Thy  will ; 

We  err  unless  Thou  guide  us. 
O  grant  us  constancy,  that  we 
May  ever  faithful  prove  to  Thee, 
Whatever  woes  betide  us. 

Descend,  II  Defend  8 

From  all  errors  ||  And  earth's  terrors  ; 
Be  our  healing, 
Jesus'  love  and  peace  revealing, 

6  Thy  grace  sustain,  pervade  our  heart, 
That  we  may  act  the  valiant  part 

With  Thee  as  our  reliance  : 
Be  Thou  our  Captain  and  our  Shield, 
That  we  may  never  quit  the  field, 


But  bid  the  foe  defiance. 
Heed  us,  |  Speed  us. 
O'er  us  hover  \\  As  our  cover; 
Thy  salvation 
Be  our  constant  consolation. 

O  mighty  Rock,  O  Source  of  Life, 

Let  Thy  dear  Word,  'mid  doubt  and  strife. 

Be  so  within  us  burning 
That  we  be  faithful  unto  death, 
In  Thy  pure  love  and  holy  faith 
From  Thee  true  wisdom  learning  I 

Thy  fire    Inspire 

Quick' ning  savor,  ,  That  with  favor 

Our  behavior 

May  confess  Christ  as  our  Savior. 

O  gentle  Dew,  from  heav'n  now  fall 
With  power  upon  the  hearts  of  all, 

Thy  tenderness  instilling ; 
That  heart  to  heart  more  closely  bound. 
Fruitful  in  kindly  deeds  be  found. 
The  law  of  love  fulfilling  ! 

No  ill  II  Shall  fill 

Hearts  that  love  Thee  ||  And  approve  Thee: 

Where  Thou  livest, 

Peace,  good  will, and  joy  Thou  givest. 

Grant  that  our  days,  while  life  shall  last, 
In  humble  holiness  be  passed  ; 

Our  minds  fill  with  Thy  leaven. 
That  they  may  rise  o'er  things  of  earth. 
The  hopes  and  joys  that  here  have  birth 
And  live  in  joys  of  heaven. 
Sustain,  II  Restrain 
From  offences  ||  Hearts  and  senses; 
Blessed  .Spirit ! 
Bid  us  thus  true  life  inherit.

2  For  Comforter  is  Thy  sweet  Name, 
A  j(ift  which  from  the  Highest  came," 
A  precious  ointment  from  above, 

A  living  fount,  a  fire  of  love. 

3  Our  minds  enlighten,  and  inspire 
Our  souls  with  love's  celestial  fire ; 

And  since  Thou  know'st  how  frail  we  be, 
Confirm  and  make  us  strong  in  Thee. 

4  Thou,  with  Thy  grace's  sev'nfold  band. 
The  finger  art  on  (rod's  right  hand  ; 
Thou  dost  the  Father's  promise  send 
With  tongues  to  earth's  remotest  end. 

From  the  I^t 


Drive  far  away,  our  wily  foe. 
And  by  Thy  grace  sweet  peace  bestow 
That  in  Thy  footsteps  we  may  run. 
And  soul-destroying  mischief  shun. 

6  Let  us  by  Thee  the  Father  know. 
His  Son,  Christ  Jesus,  also  show, 
That  full  of  faith  we  may  know  Thee 
Derived  from  both  eternally. 

7  To  God  the  Father,  and  the  Son 
Who  rose  again,  be  honor  done, 
With  Him,  who  came  at  Pentecost, 
The  Comforter,  the  Holy  Cihost.

Begotten  of  the  l-'ather, 
Did  come  as  man,  when  God's  decree 

Had  fixed,  His  sheep  to  gather. 


The  Holy  Ghost  eternally. 
While  all  their  glory  sharing. 

Their  honor,  jiower,  and  majesty, 
A  crown  all  equal  wearing, 

Proceeds  from  Son  and  Father ! 

Be  glad,  my  heart,  thy  ]X)rtion  see, 

Thy  rich,  uneciualed  treasure; 
He  is  thy  l-Viend,  sup])ly  will  He 

Thy  needs  with  bounteous  measure.. 
Who  made  thee  in  His  image  fair, 

Thy  load  of  guilt  removeth, 
Gives  thee  His  i)eo})le's  faith  to  share, 

Thy  joy  in  sorrow  proveth.

2  Dear  Father,  endless  praise  I  render, 

For  soul  and  body  strangely  joined; 
I  praise  Thee,  Guardian  kind  and  tender. 

For  all  the  noble  joys  I  find 
So  richly  spread  on  every  side, 
And  freely  for  my  use  supplied. 

3  What  equal  praises  can  I  offer, 

Dear  Jesus,  for  Thy  mercy  shown  ? 
\\Tiat  pangs,  my  Savior,  didst  Thou  suffer, 

And  thus  for  all  my  sins  atone! 
Thy  death  alone  my  soul  could  free 
From  Satan,  to  be  blest  \vith  Thee, 


4  Honor  and  praise,  still  onward  reaching, 
Be  Thine  too,  Spirit  of  all  grace, 

Whose  holy  power  and  faithful  teaching 

Give  me  among  Thy  saints  a  place: 
Whate'er  of  good  in  me  may  shine 
Comes  only  from  Thy  light  dixnne. 

5  Accept,  O  Lord,  I  now  implore  Thee, 
The  meager  praise  I  give  below: 

In  heaven  I  better  will  adore  Thee, 

When  I  an  angel's  strength  shall  know: 
There  would  I  join  their  sacre<l  praise, 
And  heav'nly  hallelujahs  raise.

Yea,  her  sins  our  God  will  pardon. 
Blotting  out  each  dark  misdeed ; 

That  which  well  deserved  His  anger 
He  will  no  more  see  or  heed.

Now  her  griefs  have  passed  an-ay,

Into  ever  springing  gladness. 


O,  that  warning  cry  obey,

And  the  hills  bow  down  to  greet  Him.

Bidding  all  men  to  re]>entance,

Make  ye  straight  what  long  was  crooked, 
Make  the  rougher  places  plain, 

Let  your  hearts  be  true  and  humble, 
As  befits  His  holy  reign  ; 

For  the  glory  of  the  I^rd 

Now  o'er  earth  is  shed  abroad. 
And  all  flesh  shall  see  the  token 
That  His  Word  is  never  broken.

Oh.  set  your  -ways  in  order 
\\'lien  such  a  Guest  is  nigh; 

Make  plain  the  paths  before  Him 
That  now  deserted  lie. 

Forsake  what  He  doth  hate, 
Exalt  the  lowly  valleys, 
Bring  down  all  pride  and  malice 

And  make  the  crooked  straight. 


3  'Tis  thus  St.  John  hath  taught  us, 
'Twas  thus  he  preached  of  yore; 

And  they  will  feel  God's  anger 
Who  list  not  to  his  lore, 

O  God!  now  let  his  voice 
To  Thy  true  service  win  us, 
That  Christ  may  come  within  us. 

And  we  in  Him  rejoice.

As  roaring  lion  'rfmnd  he  goes.

I  '      I 

And  guards  Thy  Holy  Christendom 
From  harm  that  may  from  Satan  come. 

This  we  can  well  of  Daniel  ken. 
When  he  sat  in  the  lions'  den; 
And  earlier  still,  we  have  been  taught 
How  angels  rescued  pious  Lot. 

Likewise  the  Hebrews  three,  of  old. 
Who  bent  no  knee  to  gods  of  gold, 
Sang  cheerfully  mid  flames  intense: 
God's  angel  was  their  sure  defense. 

And  thus  our  God,  still  at  this  day. 
From  harm  and  many  an  evil  way 
Keeps  us  by  His  dear  angel-guard, 
Placed  o'er  us  as  our  watch  and  ward. 

For  this,  now  and  eternally, 
Our  praise  shall  rise,  O  God,  to  Thee, 
Whom  also  angel-hosts  adore 
With  joy,  now  and  for  evermore. 

We  yet  would  pray  Thee  to  defend 
Bv  them,  unto  the  latter  end. 
Thy  fold,  that  little  flock,  O  I^ord, 
That  holds  in  honor  Thy  blest  Word!

While  the  vain  and  worldly-wise 

I'or  its  beauty  have  no  eyes, 

And  in  trust  re|K)se  their  stay 

That  at  last  nuist  all  give  way, 

Zion  looks  unto  the  Lord, 

And  by  faith  leans  on  His  Word: 

Joys  in  grace  that  will  avail, 

When  both  heart  and  flesh  shall  fail. 


Others  may  their  virtues  press. 

On  attainments  lay  great  stress; 

Zion  knows  of  grace  alone 

And  the  merits  that  atone, 

Doth  an  Only  Name  confess 

As  her  strength  and  righteousness: 

Christ,  whom  builders  would  not  own 

Is  her  precious  Corner-stone.

2  Here  give  us  e'er  such  ser\'ants,  Lord, 
As  rightly  \\nll  divide  Thy  Word; 
That  all  may  grow,  by  what  they  hear, 
In  saving  grace  and  holy  fear. 

3  Here  too  baptize  Thou  those,  and  bless, 
WTio  plead  Thy  cov'nant  promises, 

To  us  and  to  our  children  given, 

And  'w-ith  us  make  them  heirs  of  heaven. 

4  Here  let  Thy  tender  lambs  be  fed. 
Yea.  fed  with  Thine  own  living  bread. 


To  hear  Thy  voice  let  them  be  taught, 
And  from  Thy  fold  to  wander  not. 

5  Here  let  Thy  holy  Sacrament 
According  to  Thy  Word  be  spent; 
And  grant  that  all  indeed  believe, 
Who  here  the  heavenly  food  receive. 

6  O  Father,  Son,  and  Holy  Ghost, 
Here  bless  us  as  we  need  it  most! 
Our  prayer  and  praise  accept  in  love. 
And  fit  us  for  our  home  above.

2  O  bow  ye  lowly  at  His  feet,  4  When  in  the  summer's  heat  we  faint, 

And  come  into  His  courts  with  fear:  Our  Shepherd  and  our  God  is  near: 

Our  God  is  good,  as  He  is  great,  He  never  lets  His  creatures  want, 

And  with  His  goodness  crowns  the  year.         But  with  His  goodness  crowns  the  year. 

3  The  seasons  in  their  turn  display  5  Hesends  the  plenteous  shower  from  heaven: 

His  wisdom  and  His  power  divine;  He  bids  the  earth  produce  us  food: 

They  all  confess  His  sovereign  sway.  By  Him  all  happiness  is  given. 

And  in  them  does  His  goodness  shine.  And  all  His  works  declare  Him  good.

Wami  da^'s  and  dewy  nights, 
Soft  rain  in  season  given, 

Bright  clouds  and  teiuler  lights; 
Their  genial  influence  blending, 

Matured  the  sower's  lx)on, 
Till  heavy  ears  were  l>ending 

Beneath  the  liars* est  moon. 

3  And  now,  like  hands  uplifted. 

The  sheaves  in  order  stand, 
To  praise  the  Lord,  who  gifted 
With  plenteous  store  the  land; 


Our  lips  shall  own  His  kindness, 
And  tell  His  love  abroad, 

To  shame  the  willful  blindness 
Of  those  who  know  not  God. 

Lord,  while  the  whole  creation 

Bears  witness  to  Thy  care, 
O  hear  our  sup])lication,- 

And  grant  Thy  children's  prayer 
Wliile  thus  our  wants  supplyiiig. 

Our  table  Thou  dost  spread, 
O  feed  our  .souls  undying 

With  Christ,  the  Living  Bread!

May  the  thought  within  us  dwell; 
Though  no  milk  nor  honey  flow 
In  our  barren  Canaan  now, 
God  can  save  us  in  our  need, 
God  can  bless  us,  God  can  feed. 


4  What  our  Father  does,  is  well; 
Though  He  sadden  hill  and  dell, 
Upward  yet  our  praises  rise 
For  the  strength  His  Word  supplies. 
He  has  called  us  sons  of  God; 
Can  we  murmur  at  His  rod  ? 


5  Therefore  unto  Him  we  raise 
Hymns  of  glory,  songs  of  praise: 
To  the  Father  and  the  vSon 
And  the  Spirit,  Three  in  One, 
Honor,  might,  and  glory  be. 
Now  and  through  eternity.

2  With  might  of  ours  here  naught  is  done, 

Our  loss  were  soon  effected: 
But  for  us  fights  the  Valiant  One, 

Whom  Ood  Himself  elected. 
Ask  you:  "Who  is  He?" 
Christ  Jesus:  here  see 

Great  vSabaoth's  I /ml!  4 

There  is  no  other  God: 
His  is  the  field  forever. 


3  Tliough  devils  all  the  world  should  fill, 
.\11  watching  to  devour  us, 
We  tremble  not,  we  fear  no  ill, 
They  cannot  overpower  us. 


This  world's  prince  may  still 
Scowl  fierce  as  he  will. 

He  can  hann  us  none, 

For  he  is  judged — undone; 
One  little  Word  o'erthrows  him. 

The  Word  of  God  they  shall  let  stand 
And  not  a  thank  have  for  it. 

Here  Christ  Himself  leads  the  command 
With  His  great  gifts  and  Spirit; 

And  take  they  our  life, 

Gools,  fame,  child  and  wife, 
When  their  worst  is  done, 
They  yet  have  nothing  won; 

The  kingdom  ours  remaineth.

2  Their  furious  wrath,  did  Go<^i  permit, 
Would  quickly  have  consumed  us, 
And  in  the  deep  and  yawning  pit 

With  life  and  limb  entombed  us; 
Like  men  o'er  whom  dark  waters  roll, 
The  streams  had  gone  e'en  o'er  our  soul, 
And  mightily  o'erwhelmed  us. 


Thanks  be  to  God,  who  from  the  pit 
Snatched  us,  when  it  was  gaping: 

Our  souls,  like  birds  that  break  tlie  net, 
To  the  blue  sky  escaping; 

The  snare  is  broken — we  are  free! 

The  I^rd  our  Helper  prais«'d  l>e

In  God  tliey  put  no  trust  at  all, 

Nor  will  on  Him  in  trouble  call, 

But  be  their  own  providers. 

\  Therefore  their  heart  is  never  still, 
A  falling  leaf  dismays  them; 
God  is  with  him  who  doth  His  will, 
Who  trusts  Him  and  oljeys  Him; 
But  ye  the  |X)or  man's  lioi^e  despise. 
And  mock  liim  when  he  humbl}-  cries 
That  God  is  his  sure  comfort. 

I  Who  shall  to  Israel's  outcast  race 
From  Zion  bring  salvation  ? 

God  will  Himself  at  length  show  grace, 
And  loose  the  captive  nation; 

That  will  He  do  by  Christ  their  King; 

Let  Jacob  then  be  glad  and  smg, 
And  Israel  be  joyful.

Fictions  they  teach  with  cunning  art, 

And  lies  of  man's  invention; 
Not  'stablished  in  God's  Word,  their  heart 

Is  full  of  strange  di.ssension; 
One  chooses  this,  another  that. 
And  while  divisions  they  create. 

They  cant  of  love  and  union. 

May  God  root  out  all  heresy 

And  of  false  teachers  rid  us, 
\\Tio  proudly  say:  "  And  who  is  he 

That  shall  our  speech  forbid  us  ? 
We  have  the  might  and  right  alone, 
And  what  we  say  must  stand;  we  own 

None  as  our  lord  and  master." 

Wherefore,  saith  God,  I  will  arise! 

My  poor  they  are  oppressing; 
I  hear  tlieir  crymg  and  their  sighs, 

Their  wrongs  shall  have  redressing; 


My  Word,  endued  with  saving  might, 
Shall  suddenly  the  wicked  smite, 
And  be  my  poor  ones'  comfort. 

5  As  silver  sev'n  times  furnace-tried, 
Is  found  for  it  the  purer, 

So  doth  the  Word,  wliate'er  betide. 

But  prove  itself  the  surer; 
The  cross  reveals  its  worth  aright, 
'Tis  then  we  see  its  strength  and  light 
Shine  far  in  earth's  dark  places. 

6  O  Go<l,  keep  Thou  it  pure  and  free 
From  this  vile  generation, 

And  let  us  too  be  kept  by  Thee 

From  their  abomination; 
The  wicked  walk  about  at  ease. 
When  loose,  ungodly  men  like  these 
Are  in  the  land  exalted.

And  make  us  chivalrous. 
In  these  times  of  indilT'rence 

And  dearth  of  faith,  O  come! 
And  i)ly  the  keen-edged  weapons 

Of  early  Christendom. 

Rank  unbelief  is  rampant. 

Mad  folly  storms  the  sky, 
Hence  Thou  Thyself  nnist  ann  us 

With  weai><)ns  from  on  high: 
With  wisdom,  grace,  endurance, 

And  faith  robust,  and  then 
Entirely  banish  from  us 

All  false  respect  for  men. 

These  times  call  for  decision, 

Though  foes  'gainst  us  inveigh; 
For  oj)en,  bold  confession, 

Whate'er  the  world  may  say: 
In  spite  of  all  the  glitter 

Of  gilded  heathendom, 
To  prai.se,  defend,  and  cheri.sh

5  Afar,  o'er  heathen  darkness. 

The  powerful  Word  breaks  day; 
They  cast,  with  Satan's  shackles, 

Their  household-gods  away; 
From  every  side  they  hasten 

Into  the  Savior's  fold. 
And  oh!  shall  it  clo.se  to  us 

As  to  the  lost  of  old! 

6  Alas!  we  truly  merit 

Such  judgment  as  our  lot; 
To  us  the  light  is  shining, 

But  we  receive  it  not! 
O  grant  us  greater  fen-or 

T'  implore  Thy  grace,  dear  Lord, 
That  from  us  be  not  taken 

The  light  of  Thy  blest  Word. 

7  Pour,  Spirit,  o'er  all  nations 

A  Pentecostal  shower. 
The  Word  of  testimony 

Accomjiany  with  jK)wer, 
That  heart  and  li]is  may  open — 

The  nations'  and  our  own — 
And  we,  through  joy  and  sorrow. 

Make  Chri.st's  salvation  known.

2  Tell  of  our  Redeemer's  love, 
Who  forever  doth  remove, 
By  His  holy  sacrifice, 
All  the  guilt  that  on  us  lies. 
Tell  them  of  the  vSi)irit  given 
As  our  guide  through  Christ  to  heaven 
vStrong  and  holy,  ju<;l  and  true, 
Working  botii  to  will  and  do. 


3  Word  of  Life !  most  pure  and  strong, 
Lo !  for  thee  the  nations  long : 
Spread  and  banish  by  thy  light 
Everywhere  sin's  dreary  night. 
Up  !  the  ripening  fields  we  see, 
Mighty  shall  the  harvest  be; 
But  the  reai>ers  still  how  few! 
Lord,  send  men  Thy  work  to  do. 
Jonathan  Friedcrich  Bahnmeicr,  1827.     Tr.  composite,  based 
chiefly  on  that  of  C.Ttherine  Wink  worth.  1H.58

2  We  sing  the  wisdom  that  ordained  4  Lord,  how  Thy  wonders  are  displayed. 

The  sun  to  rule  the  day;  Where'er  we  turn  our  eyes, 

The  moon  shines,  too,  at  His  command,  Whether  we  view  the  ground  we  tread^ 

And  all  the  stars  obey.  Or  gaze  upon  the  skies! 


3  We  sing  the  goodness  of  the  Ix)rd, 
Who  fills  the  earth  with  food; 
Who  formed  His  creatures  by  a  word, 
And  then  pronounced  them  good. 


5  But  far  more  glorious  is  Thy  grace 
Revealed  in  Christ,  Thy  vSon, 
In  whom  we  see  a  Father's  face 
And  worship  at  His  throne.

2  Thou  too  hastsearched  and  seen  me  through,  4  vSuch  knowledge  is  too  great  for  me, 

Awake,  asleep,  I'm  in  Thy  view;  Too  wonderful!  I  bow  to  Thee 

My  going  out,  my  coming  in,  In  humble  awe,  and,  rapt,  adore 

Thou  seest,  and  my  thoughts  within.  Thy  vast  omniscience  all  the  more! 


8  Before  my  lips  my  thoughts  obey. 
Thou  knowest  what  I  mean  to  say; 
Yea,  long  ere  yet  they  are  my  own, 
My  thoughts, as  Thine, to  Thee  are  known. 


5  Lord  Jesus,  do  Thou  light  my  heart, 
And  bid  all  darkness  thence  depart! 
O  keep  me  steadfast  in  Thy  grace. 
Till  I  shall  see  Thee  face  to  face.

2  Thy  hand  shall  lead  me  by  the  way. 
Thy  right  hand  be  my  staff  and  stay; 
Though  darkness  compass  me  around. 
Night  shall  be  light  where  Thou  art  found. 

3  Where  Thou  art,  darkness  cannot  stay, 
Thou  tumest  darkness  into  day; 

Both  night  and  light  are  one  to  Thee: 
In  darkness  Thou  still  seest  me. 

4  Thine  eye  beheld  me  yet  unborn, 

And  watched  my  step)s  from  earliest  morn ; 


My  ways  are  written  in  Thy  book : 
By  Thee  I  live,  to  Thee  I  look. 

5  Thy, thoughts  are  precious  to  my  heart; 
Thy  presence  bids  all  care  depart; 

I  lay  me  down.  Thou  art  with  me; 
I  wake — and  still  I  am  with  Thee. 

6  Lord,  tr>'  my  way  and  me  anew; 
Prove  Thou  my  heart  and  make  it  true, 
And  lead  me  in  the  better  way, 

To  life,  to  Thee — for  aye  and  aye.

2  Deep  in  unfathomable  mines 

Of  never-failing  skill, 
He  treasures  up  His  bright  designs, 
And  works  His  sov'reign  will. 

3  Ye  fearful  saints !  fresh  courage  take 

The  clouds  ye  .so  much  dread 
Are  big  with  mercy,  and  will  break 
In  blessings  on  your  head. 

4  Judge  not  the  Lord  by  feeble  sense.

Behind  a  frowning  providence 
He  hides  a  smiling  face. 

5  His  purposes  will  ripen  fast,

The  bud  may  have  a  bitter  taste, 
But  sweet  will  be  the  flower. 

6  Blind  unbelief  is  sure  to  err, 

And  scan  His  work  in  vain ;

2  It  is  not  changeful  human  thought, 
That  here  to  darkened  souls  is  brought, 
But  everlasting  truth  and  right 

That  shed  on  man  their  heavenly  light. 

3  It  makes  the  way  of  faith  so  plain 
That  none  in  darkness  need  remain ; 
Wlio  meekly  choose  it  as  tlieir  guide 
vShall  not  in  doubt  and  gloom  abide. 

4  It  makes  the  path  of  duty  clear, 
That  all  in  this  may  persevere  ; 


Who  humbly  heed  its  righteous  way 
Shall  not  from  right  and  virtue  stray. 

5  For  faith  and  life,  for  thought  and  deed, 
No  other  rule  and  guide  we  need  : 
When  God  the  King  proclaims  His  will, 
'Tis  meet  all  others  should  be  still. 

6  To  this  alone  may  we  adhere, 

In  faith  and  love  and  godly  fear, 
And  ever  walking  by  His  Word, 
Give  glory  to  our  Sovereign  Lord.

O  grant  that  we  may  constant  be ; 
And  pure  retain,  till  life  is  spent, 
Thy  precious  Word  and  Sacrament. 


6  And  ever  is  there  something  new 

Devised  to  change  Thy  doctrines  true;

Endue  Thy  Word  with  power  and  grace.      Us  help  and  strength  and  constancy, 
And  spread  its  truth  in  ev'ry  place.  And  keep  us  ever  true  to  Thee. 

4  Yes!  leave  us  but  Thy  Word,  we  pray  ;     8  Thy  Word  shall  fortify  us  hence, 
The  fatal  wiles  of  Satan  stay  ;  It  is  Thy  Church's  sure  defense  ; 
Oh,  smile  upon  Thy  Church  :  give  grace,     O  let  us  in  its  power  confide. 
And  courage,  patience,  love,  and  peace.       That  we  may  seek  no  other  guide. 


5  O  God  !  how  sin's  dread  works  abound 
Throughout  the  earth  no  rest  is  found ; 
And  wide  has  falsehood's  spirit  spread. 
And  error  boldly  rears  its  head. 


9  Here  on  Thy  Word  in  faith  we  lean, 
There  Thou  shalt  l>e  forever  seen  ; 
And  when  our  journey  endeth  here. 
Receive  us,  Ivord,  in  glory  there,

Its  terrors  in  their  ear  resounds. 

And  keeps  their  wickedness  in  bounds. 

5  The  law  is  good,  but  since  the  fall 
Its  holiness  condemns  us  all : 
It  dooms  us  for  our  sin  to  die. 
And  has  no  power  to  justify. 

G  To  Jesus  we  for  refuge  flee, 

WTio  from  the  curse  has  set  us  free,

1  The  Gosjjel  shows  the  Father's  grace, 
Who  sent  His  Son  to  sjive  our  race  : 
Proclaims  how  Je.sus  lived  and  died 
That  man  might  thus  be  justified. 

2  It  sets  the  Lamb  before  our  eyes 
Who  made  th' atoning  sacrifice. 

And  calls  the  souls  with  guilt  oppressed 
To  come  and  find  eternal  rest. 

3  Tt  brings  the  Savior's  righteousness 
Our  .souls  to  robe  in  royal  dress ; 
Vxmw  all  our  guilt  it  brings  release, 
And  gives  llie  lr()ul)led  conscience  peace. 


4  It  is  the  ]>owcr  of  God  to  save 
From  sin  and  vSatan  and  the  grave ; 

It  works  the  faith  which  firmly  clings 
To  all  the  treasures  which  it  brings, 

5  It  bears  to  all  the  tidings  glad. 

And  bids  their  hearts  no  more  be  sad  ; 
The  heavy  laden  soul  it  cheers. 
And  banishes  their  guilty  fears. 

6  May  we  in  faith  its  tidings  learn. 
Nor  thanklessly  its  blessings  spurn  ; 
May  we  in  faith  its  truth  confess, 
.\nd  praise  the  Lord  our  righteousness.

Gracious  Spirit,  Thou  who  showest 
In  the  Word  the  Father's  heart, 

And  all  needful  help  bestowest, 
Light  and  sense  to  me  impart, 

That  I  may  the  riches  see 

Which  God's  Word  here  offers  me. 


What  I  read,  help  that  I  heed  it ; 

What  Thou  sayest,let  me  do ; 
Strength  to  faith  grant  as  I  need  it, 

And  remind  me  still  anew 
That  the  faith  that  counts  above 
Is  e'er  active  here  in  love. 


In  its  solemn  contemplation 
From  vain  cares  let  me  be  free, 

And  in  prayerful  adoration 

Stay  Thou  all  my  thoughts  on  Thee, 

That  the  world  may  not  annoy 

While  I  make  Thy  Word  my  joy. 


5  Let  Thy  grace  sustain,  protect  me. 

That  my  ways  ne'er  from  Thee  part; 
Thy  enlightening  Word  direct  me ; 

Seal  this  treasure  in  my  heart, 
That  my  faith  may  steadfast  prove, 
Till  I  walk  by  sight  above.

2  Soon  may  that  fire  from  heaven  be  lent  us, 

That  swift  from  land  to  land  its  flames  may  leap ; 
Soon,  Lord,  that  priceless  boon  be  sent  us 

Of  faithful  servants,  fit  for  Thee  to  reap 
The  harvest  of  the  soul — look  down  and  view 
How  great  the  harvest,  but  the  lab'rers  few. 

3  Lord,  to  our  earnest  prayer  now  hearken. 

The  prayer  we  offer  at  Thy  Son's  command ; 
For,  lo !    while  storms  around  us  darken, 

Thy  children's  hearts  are  stirred  in  ev'ry  land 
To  cr}'  for  help,  with  fervent  soul,  to  Thee; 
O  hear  us.  Lord,  and  speak  :   "  Thus  let  it  be  !  " 

4  O  s|)eedily  that  help  be  granted ! 

Send  forth  evangelists,  in  spirit  strong, 
Armed  with  Thy  Word,  a  host  undaunted. 

Bold  to  attack  the  rule  of  ancient  wrong. 
And  let  them  all  the  earth  for  Thee  reclaim. 
To  be  Thy  kingdom  and  to  know  Thy  name ! 

5  Grant  that  for  which  Thy  ]x?ople  calleth  ! 

Send  down  Thy  i)romised  vS])irit,  Lord,  in  might, 
Before  whom  every  barrier  falleth. 

And  let  it  thus  at  evening-time  be  light; 
O !    rend  the  heavens,  and  make  Thy  presence  felt. 
The  chains  that  bind  us  at  Thy  touch  would  melt. 

6  Ivet  Zion's  paths  lie  waste  no  longer. 

Remove  the  hitidrances  that  there  have  lain. 
And  let  Thy  Word  go  forth  to  cotujuer ; 

Destroy  false  doctrine,  root  out  notions  vain, 
Set  free  from  hirelings,  let  the  Church  and  School 
lUoom  as  a  garden  'neath  Thy  prosp'ring  rule.

Savior,  since  of  Zion's  city 

I,  through  grace,  a  member  am, 
Let  the  world  deride  or  pity, 

I  will  glory  in  Thy  Name. 
Fading  is  the  wordling's  pleasure. 

All  his  boasted  pomp  and  show  ; 
Solid  joys  and  lasting  treasure, 

None  but  Zion's  children  know. 

Rev.  John  Newton,  1779 


See  also  Austria,  No.  219 

2  See,  the  streams  of  living  waters. 

Springing  from  eternal  love, 
Well  supply  thy  sons  and  daughters 

And  all  fear  of  want  remove. 
\\Tio  can  faint  while  such  a  river 

Ever  flows  their  thirst  t'a.ssuage? 
Grace  which,  like  the  Lord,  the  Giver, 

Never  fails  from  age  to  age.

How  bright  has  His  salvation  shone 
Through  all  her  palaces !

And  seek  deliv'rance  there.

And  mourn  our  sin  and  all  its  woe, 
And  yet  believe  in  Father,  Son,

12  I  am  Thy  God  and  Lord  alone, 
No  other  god  beside  me  own  ; 
Put  thy  whole  confidence  in  Me, 
And  love  Me  in  sincerity. 

3  By  idle  word  and  speech  profane, 
Take  not  My  holy  name  in  vain  ; 
And  praise  not  aught  as  good  and  true 
But  what  God  doth  both  say  and  do. 

4  Hallow  the  day  which  God  hath  blest, 
That  Thou  and  all  Thy  house  may  rest : 
Keep  hand  and  heart  from  labor  free, 
That  God  may  have  His  work  in  Thee. 

5  Give  to  thy  parents  honor  due. 
Be  dutiful  and  loving  too, 

And  hel]) them  when  their  strength  decays; 
Then  (kxl  shall  give  thee  length  of  days. 

6  Harbor  no  hatred,  nor  ill  will, 

I^est  hate  breed  anger,  and  thou  kill ; 
Be  patient  and  of  gentle  mood, 
And  to  thine  enemy  do  good. 

7  Be  faithful  to  thy  marriage  vows, 
Thy  heart  give  only  to  thy  spouse ; 


Keep  pure  thy  life,  and  lest  thou  sin, 
Use  temperance  and  discipline. 

8  Steal  not,  oppressive  acts  abhor, 

Nor  wring  their  life-blood  from  the  poor ; 
But  open  wide  thy  loving  hand 
To  all  the  needy  in  the  land. 

9  Bear  not  false  witness,  nor  belie 
Thy  neighbor  by  foul  calumny ; 
Defend  his  innocence  from  blame, 
And  hide  with  charity  his  shame, 

10  Thy  neighbor's  wife  desire  thou  not. 
His  house,  nor  aught  that  he  hath  got ; 
But  wish  that  his  such  good  may  be, 
As  thine  own  heart  doth  wish  for  thee. 

1 1  God  these  Commandments  gave,  therein 
To  show  thee,  son  of  man.  thy  sin, 
And  make  thee  also  well  perceive, 
How  unto  (yod  man  ought  to  live, 

12  Help  us,  Lord  Jesus  Christ,  for  we 
A  Mediator  have  in  Thee  ; 

Without  Thy  help  our  works  are  vain. 
And  merit  only  endless  pain.

Our  God  Himself  commanded  us.

Thy  heart  shall  trust  alone  in  Me, 
Yea,  Mine  own  kingdom  shalt  thou  be.

And  call  on  Me  in  time  of  need, 
And  sanctify  the  holy  day, 

That  work  in  thee  I  also  may. 

4  Obedient  always,  next  to  Me,

Keep  undefiled  thy  marriage  bed.

O  jealous  God,  do  pity  me 

And  mark  not  mine  iniquity  !

Faith  in  meekness,  as  is  meet, 
Sits  and  learns  at  Jesus'  feet ; 
Nestles  closely  to  the  Ix)rd, 
Happy  in  the  Master's  Word; 
Cleaves  to  it,  defends  it  then  : 
This  to  faith  is  Yea,  Amen. 

Faith  is  sure,  where  sight  is  blind  : 
While  lost  sense  may  nowhere  find 
Hope,  to  stay  a  sinking  soul 


When  the  billows  o'er  it  roll, 
Faith  directs  its  saving  quest 
To  the  cross,  and  there  finds  rest. 

Faith,  in  childlike  trust,  is  wise : 
Trusting  Him  who  never  lies ; 
By  whose  grace  the  weak  grow  .strong, 
Change  their  .sighing  into  song. 
Praise  be  Thine,  O  lyOrd  of  might ! 
Faith  shall  end  in  glorious  sight.

To  death,  that  wc  might  live. 
Shall  He  not  all  things  fretlv  grant, 
That  l>oundless  love  can  give? 

3  Who  now  His  people  shall  accuse? 

'Tis  God  hath  justified  ; 


Who  now  His  people  shall  condemn? 
The  Lamb  of  God  hath  died. 

4  And  He  who  died  hath  risen  again, 
Triunipliant,  from  the  grave; 
At  GikI's  right  hand  for  us  He  pleads, 
Omniix)tent  to  save.

2  That  will  not  murmur  nor  complain 
Beneath  the  chast'ning  rod, 
But,  in  the  hour  of  grief  and  pain, 
Will  lean  upon  its  God  ; 


That  seas  of  trouble  cannot  drown, 
Nor  Satan's  arts  beguile; 


0  A  faith  that  keeps  the  narrow  way 
Till  life's  last  hour  is  fled, 

3  A  faith  that  shines  more  bright  and  clear.        And  with  a  pure  and  heavenly  ray 

When  tempests  rage  without  ;  Lights  up  a  dying  bed. 

That,  when  in  danger,  knows  no  fear, 

In  darkness,  feels  no  doubt ;  6  Lord,  give  us  such  a  faith  as  this, 

And  then,  whate'er  may  come, 

4  That  bears,  unmoved,  the  world's  dread  frown.       We'll  taste,  e'en  here,  the  hallowed  bliss 

Nor  heeds  its  scornful  smile ;  Of  an  eternal  home.

2  Prayer  is  the  burden  of  a  sigh. 
The  falling  of  a  tear ; 
The  upward  glancing  of  an  eye 
When  none  but  God  is  near. 


4  Prayer  is  the  Christian's  vital  breath, 
The  Christian's  native  air, 
His  watchword  at  the  gate  of  death- 
He  enters  heaven  with  prayer. 


3  Prayer  is  the  simplest  fonii  of  speech  6  Prayer  is  the  contrite  sinner's  voice 

That  infant  lips  can  try  :  Returning  from  his  ways,

2  To  Thy  dear  Son,  O  Father,  lead  me. 

That  He  again  to  Thee  may  lead  my 
soul ; 
Thy  Spirit  in  green  pastures  feed  me, 
And  all  my  powers  of  heart  and  mind 
control. 
That  I  may  always  feel  Thy  holy  peace, 
And  sing  in  praise  of  Thee  and  never  ^ 
cease. 

3  Grant  me,  O  Lord,  this  priceless  treasure, 

Then  shall  mv  humble  worship  grateful 
be; 
Then  beautiful  will  be  the  measure 

With  which  in  heart  and  truth  I  worship 
Thee ; 
Then  near  to  Thee  Thy  Spirit  shall  me 

bring.  ~ 

And  I  a  worthy  psalm  of  praise  shall  sing. 

4  For  He  can  intercede  with  groanings, 

WTiich  my  poor  tongue  is  powerless  to 
express ; 
He  comes  to  soothe  my  cheerless  moanings, 
And  with  the  prayer  of  faith  my  soul  to 
bless : 
Makes  me  joint-heir  \\-ith  Christ  of  wealth  ^ 

on  high. 
And  Vjids  me  ever,  Abba,  Father !  crj'. 

5  Thine  eye  with  tenderness  beholds  me, 

When  by  the   Spirit's   power   my   cry 
ascends ; 


Thine  arm  with  gentleness  enfolds  me, 
And  all  Thy  love  to  meet  and  bless  me 
bends. 
E'er  ready  all  my  wishes  to  fulfill, 
Which    upward    rise    according    to    Thy 
will. 

And  what  to  ask  Thy  Spirit  teaches. 

Must  ever  with  Thy  holy  will  accord  ; 
My  soul  in  Jesus'  name  beseeches. 

And    therefore    wilt   Thou    ever\'    gift 
afford ; 
I  am  in  Him  Thine  own  dear  child  and 

heir, 
And  grace  for  grace  receive  to  crown  my 
prayer. 

How  richly  this  assurance  blesses  ! 

With  comfort,  peace  and  joy  it  fills  my 
heart ; 
I  know  that  Thou  whom  faith  addresses. 
Each  needful  gift  wilt  graciously  impart. 
And  more  than  I  can  ask  or  understand 
Thou  shower'st  on  me  from  Thy  bounteous 
hand. 

I  ask  in  Jesus'  name,  believing, 

Wlio  ever  intercedes  in  heaven  for  me  ; 

Through  Him  each  |x*rfect  gift  receiving, 
In  whom  is  Yea  whate'er  I  ask  of  Thee: 

How  blest  am  I  !  my  soul  forever  bless 

The  name  of  Him  who  grants  such  happi- 
ness !

2  Thy  name  be  hallowed  !  help  us,  Lord, 
To  keep  in  purity  Thy  Word, 
That  we  may  live  as  Christians  ought, 
Holy  in  word,  and  deed,  and  thought. 
Keep  us,  O  Lord,  from  all  false  lore, 
And  those  who  err  to  truth  restore.

Break  Satan's  jxjwer,  defeat  his  rage, 
Preserve  the  Church  Thine  heritage.

On  earth,  as  'tis  in  heaven  above; 
Patience  in  time  of  grief  bestow, 
Obedience  in  all  weal  and  woe; 
Curb  flesh  and  blo(xi,  or  any  ill. 
That  sets  itself  against  Thy  will.

I'or  needful  things  alone  we  ])ray; 
I'rom  war  and  strife  be  our  defense, 
I'Vom  famine  and  from  pestilence; 
That  we  may  live  in  godly  peace. 
Free  from  all  care  and  avarice.

6  Forgive  our  sins,  the  burden  sore 
Remove,  that  it  afflict  no  more. 
As  we  will  also  those  forgive 
Who  by  offenses  us  may  grieve. 
Make  us  delight  in  ser\-ing  Thee 
In  perfect  love  and  unity. 

7  Into  temptation  lead  us  not, 
When  vSatan  doth  against  us  plot ; 
Upon  the  left  hand  and  the  right 
O  help  us  valiantly  to  fight. 

Firm  in  the  faith,  a  well-armed  host, 
Through  comfort  of  the  Holy  Ghost 

8  From  evil.  Lord,  deliver  us, 
The  times  and  days  are  perilous ; 
O  save  us  from  eternal  death. 
And  comfort  us  in  oiir  last  breath ; 
Grant  us  a  blessed  end,  and  take 
Our  souls  to  Thee,  for  Jesus'  sake.

Amen,  amen  :  so  shall  it  be! 
Confirm  our  faith  continually, 
So  that  we  finnly  may  believe. 
What  we  here  asl^  we  shall  receive, 
Since  in  Thy  name,  and  at  Thy  Word

2  So  hear  ye  all  and  well  perceive 

VvTiat  God  doth  call  Baptism, 
And  what  a  Christian  should  believe, 

Who  error  shuns  and  schism  : 
That  we  should  water  use,  the  Lord 

Declareth  it  His  pleasure. 
Not  simple  water,  but  the  Word 

And  Spirit  without  measure  ; 

He  is  the  real  Baptixer.

5  Thus  Jesus  His  disciples  sent  : 
Go,  teach  ye  every  nation, 

That,  lost  in  sin,  they  must  re|)ent 
And  flee  from  condemnation  : 

He  that  believes  and  is  baptized 
Shall  thereby  have  salvation, 

A  new-ljorn  man  he  is  in  Christ, 
Is  safe  from  condemnation. 
And  shall  inherit  heaven. 


To  show  us  this  He  hath  His  Word 
With  signs  and  symbols  given  ; 

On  Jordan's  banks  was  plainly  heard 
The  Father's  voice  from  heaven  : 

"This  is  my  well  beloved  Son, 
In  whom  my  soul  delighteth. 

Hear  HimI  "  Yea,  hear  Him,  every  one, 
Wlien  He  Himself  inviteth. 
Hear  and  obey  His  teaching. 


6  Who  in  this  mercy  hath  no  faith, 
Nor  aught  therein  discerneth, 
Is  yet  in  sin,  condemned  to  death 

And  fire  that  ever  burnetii ; 

His  holiness  avails  him  not, 

*     Nor  aught  which  he  is  doing, 

His  birth-sin  brings  it  all  to  naught. 

And  maketh  sure  his  ruin  ; 

Himself  he  cannot  succor. 


4  In  tender  manhood,  God  the  Son 
In  Jordan's  water  standeth  ; 

The  Holy  Ghost  from  His  own  throne 
In  dove-like  form  descendetli  : 

That  thus  the  truth  be  not  denietl. — 
Xor  should  our  faith  e'er  waver, — 

That  all  Three  Persons  e'er  preside 
.\t  Baptism's  holy  laver, 
And  dwell  with  the  believer. 


Blind  sense  but  water  sees,  and  spurns  . 

"  Pray,  how  can  water  save  us?  " 

Faith  marks  the  Word,  and  well  di.scerns 

Christ's  merits  that  here  lave  us ; 
F'aith  sees  this  cleansing  fountain  red 

With  the  dear  blcKxl  of  Jesus, 
Which,  both  from  sin  inherited 

From  fallen  .Xdam  frees  us. 

And  sins  we  have  committed.

2  This  flood,  to  cleanse  sin's  leprosy, 
Mere  earthly  water  cannot  be  ; 

But  water  and  God's  gracious  Word 
Conjoined,  this  saving  bath  afford. 

3  Go  ye,  says  Christ,  my  Word  proclaim. 
Baptize  the  nations  in  God's  name : 
All  who  are  baptized  and  l)elieve 

My  full  salvation  shall  receive, 

4  God,  Father,  Son  and  Holy  Ghost, 
To  be  baptized  invites  the  host. 


He  will  be  present,  though  unseen, 
From  all  their  sins  to  wash  them  clean. 

5  So  too,  by  our  repentance,  must 
The  old  man,  with  his  sins  and  lust. 
Be  daily  drowned,  and  then  arise 

A  new  man,  righteous,  pure,  and  wise. 

6  That  l)y  the  water  and  the  Word 
We're  born  again,  we  thank  Thee,  Lord! 
In  life  and  death  Thine  let  us  be. 

And  Thine  in  all  eternity.

2  This  assurance,  night  and  morn. 

In  our  ears  re-echoes  ever, 
Who  are  not  of  water  born 

And  the  Spirit,  pure  are  never. 
Ne'er  can  claim  the  Savior's  merit, 
Ne'er  His  kingdom  shall  inherit. 

3  Therefore  hasten  we  to  Thee, 

From  our  arms  the  pledge  be  taken. 
Show  Thy  mercy  large  and  free. 

Be  this  infant  not  forsaken. 
May  compassion,  mild  and  tender. 
Thine  this  child  forever  render. 


5  Turn  the  darkness  into  light. 

Change  Thy  wrath  to  gracious  favor. 
Heal  the  seq^ent's  cruel  bite, 

By  this  wonder-working  laver  ; 
Here  let  flow  a  Jordan  river. 
And  from  leprosy  deliver. 

6  Shepherd  !  now  Thy  Lamb  protect, 
Head  !  Thy  member  kindly  make  it. 

Way  of  Heaven  !  its  path  direct, 

Prince  of  Peace  !  to  peace  awake  it. 
Vine !  O  may  this  branch,  believing. 
Ever  live,  Thy  life  receiving! 


Wash  it,  Jesus!  in  Thy  blood, 
From  the  sin-stain  of  its  nature. 

Let  it  rise  from  out  this  flood 

Clothed  in  Thee,  a  newborn  creature 

May  it,  washed  as  Thou  hast  bidden. 

In  Thine  innocence  be  hidden. 


Benjamin  Schmolke,  1709. 


Now  into  Thy  heart  we  pour 

Prayers  that  from  our  hearts  proceeded ; 
May  our  sighings  heavenward  soar, 

May  our  wann  desires  be  heeded  ; 
May  the  name  which  we  have  given 
Be  recorded  high  in  heaven.

Then,  dearest  Lord!  to  Thee, 
Here  clothe  it  in  Thy  nature  mild, 

From  sin  here  make  it  free ; 
And  buried  here  in  death  severe, 

To  new  life  may  it  rise, 
And  trained /or  Thee,  with  Thee  appear

2  Long  ere  the  Holy  Child  was  born 
Who  changed  our  night  to  glorious  morn, 
The  promise  which  foretold  the  day 
Cheered  sighing  saints  upon  their  way.     ^ 

3  And  still  the  promise  cheers  the  fold 
With  prospects  bright  of  joys  untold, 
Wliile  foes  beset,  on  every  hand, 

Their  pathway  to  the  promised  land.  " 

4  And  shall  the  lambs  be  spurned  away 
To  save  themselves  as  best  they  may? 


Is  there  for  these  no  promise  given, 

No  means  to  make  them  heirs  of  heaven? 

The  promise  is  to  them — they  share 
The  claim  to  lasting  treasures  there : 
For  Jesus  suffered  shame  and  pain 
To  cleanse  them  too  from  every  stain. 

And  where  baptismal  waters  flow, 
He  comes  to  save  from  sin  and  woe  : 
May  we  this  promise  ne'er  despise, 
But  with  our  children  claim  the  prize.

Takes  and  blesses

2  The  water  used  at  God's  behest 

Must  yield  our  souls  the  promised  rest; 
For  where  a  solemn  ])ledge  He  gives 
Whoe'er  in  faith  accepts  it,  lives. 

3  Let  us  but  birl  our  hearts  be  still. 
Nor  rise  in  doubt  against  His  will ; 


The  power  that  made  us  with  a  breath 
By  simplest  means  can  save  from  death.

To  whom  in  life  and  death  we  cling.

Throuch  faith  our  sinful  souls  to  save.

4  O  Christ !  turn  not  away  from  me. 
Accept  and  hide  me  quite  in  Thee, 
Within  Thy  holy  wounds  enclose, 
And  keep  me  safe  when  foes  oppose. 

5  In  death's  dark  hour  with  me  abide, 
And  place  me,  Saviour !  at  Th\'  side, 
With  all  Thy  blessed  saints  on  high 
To  sing  Thy  praise,  and  never  die.

2  The  water  from  Thy  side  that  poured 
For  me  a  cleansing  bath  afford, 
And  all  Thy  blood,  with  life  divine, 
Revive  these  sluggish  powers  of  mine. 

3  The  bloody  sweat  upon  Thy  face 
Deliver  me  from  death's  embrace, 
And  all  Thy  passion,  cross,  and  pain, 
With  strength  my  feebleness  sustain. 


1  O  Great  High  Priest !  forget  not  me. 
Though  I  have  oft  forgotten  Thee, 
But  give  me  strength  for  all  the  strife 
And  all  the  toil  and  pain  of  life. 


3  Let  me  not  crave  the  wealth  of  earthy 
Its  honors  and  its  giddy  mirth. 
But  still  remember  I  am  Thine, 
And  be  content  that  Thou  art  mine. 


2  Let  not  a  wav'ring  heart  be  mine,  4  Thou  hast  redeemed  me  with  Thy  blood. 

That  is  the  world's  and  would  be  Thine  ;      And  washed  me  in  the  mystic  flood  ; 
May  I  in  faith  Thy  promise  hold.  Let  not  this  grace  be  all  in  vain. 

And  never  wander  from  Thy  fold.  Nor  let  me  pierce  Thy  side  again. 


5  To  Thee  I  humbly  raise  mine  eyes, 

Do  not  my  sinful  soul  despise;  , 

Perfect  the  work  Thou  hast  begun, 
And  let  Thy  saving  will  be  done.

This  is  mv  firm  rebance.

Gtxl's  mercies  far  exceed  it; 
His  hand  can  help,  though  sore  the  strait, 

And  great  the  grace  that's  needed  :

Who  Israel  doth  guard  and  keep. 
And  save  from  sin  and  evil.

But  from  Thee  how  can  I  hide  me? 

Thou,  O  God,  art  everywhere  : 
Refuge  from  Thee  is  denied  me. 

Or  by  land  or  sea  or  air ; 
Nor  death's  darkness  can  enfold  me 
So  that  Thou  shouldst  not  behold  me.

And  the  blood  He  shed  for  sin. 
That  can  heal  me  and  restore  me.

'Tis  alone  His  cross  can  vanquish 
These  dark  fears  and  soothe  this  anguish.

Though  Thy  child  I  scarce  dare  call  me,  Let  me  know  Thy  gracious  pardon, 

Yet  restore  me  to  Thy  grace  ;  Wash  me,  make  me  white  as  snow. 

Do  not  for  my  sins  forsake  me,  Let  Thy  Spirit  leave  me  never, 

Let  not  yet  Thy  wrath  o'ertake  me.  Make  me  only  Thine  forever !

2  Just  as  I  am,  and  waiting  not 
To  rid  my  soul  of  one  dark  blot. 

To  Thee,  whose  blood  can  cleanse  each  spot, 
O  Lamb  of  God,  I  come  !  I  come ! 

3  Just  as  I  am,  though  tossed  about. 
With  many  a  conflict,  many  a  doubt, 
Dread  fears  within,  and  strife  without, 

O  Lamb  of  (xod,  I  come  !  I  come  ! 

4  Just  as  I  am,  jjoor,  wretched,  blind. 
Sight,  riches,  healing  of  the  mind. 


Vea,  all  I  want — in  Thee  to  find — 
O  Lamb  of  God,  I  come !  I  come ! 

5  Just  as  I  am — Thou  wilt  receive, 
Wilt  pardon,  comfort,  cleanse,  relieve, 
Because  Thy  ])romise  I  believe, — 

O  Lamb  of  God,  I  come !  I  come ! 

6  Just  as  I  am,  for  love  unknown 
Has  broken  ev'r}-  barrier  down, 
Now  to  be  Thine,  and  Thine  alone, 

O  Lamb  of  God,  I  come  !  I  come  !

Hence  will  I  not  grow  faint-hearted,

This  sweet  comfort  shall  then  cheer  me;

But  that  he  turn  from  error's  ways,  Repent  and  live  thro'  endless  days.      A- men. 


2  Hence  Christ  His  foil' wers  gave  command : 
Go  forth  and  preach  in  every  land  ; 
Pardon  to  every  soul  extend 

That  mourns,  believes,  and  will  amend. 

3  WTiose  sins  soever  ye  remit, 
I  truly  pardon  and  acquit ; 
Whose  sins  soever  ye  retain, 
Condemned  and  gtiilty  shall  remain. 

4  What  ye  shall  bind,  that  bound  shall  be, 
What  ye  shall  loose,  that  shall  be  free ; 
To  all  alike  the  Keys  are  given 
To  ope  and  close  the  gates  of  heaven. 

5  They  who  believe,  when  ye  proclaim 
The  joyful  tidings  in  my  name. 
That  I  for  them  my  blood  have  shed, 
Are  free  from  guilt  and  judgment  dread. 

6  The  words  which  absolution  give 
Are  His  who  died  that  we  might  live  ; 
The  minister  whom  Christ  has  sent 
Is  but  His  humble  instrument. 

7  However  great  our  sin  may  be. 
The  absolution  sets  us  free. 


Appointed  by  God's  own  dear  Son 
To  bring  the  pardon  He  has  won. 

8  When  ministers  lay  on  their  hands, 
Absolved  by  Christ  the  sinner  stands; 
He  who  by  grace  the  Word  believes. 
The  purchase  of  His  blood  receives. 

9  This  is  the  Power  of  Holy  Keys, 
It  binds  and  doth  again  release  ; 
The  Church  retains  them  at  her  side. 
Our  Mother,  and  Christ's  holy  Bride, 


10  Let  those  who  stings  of  conscience  bear, 
Whom  sin  would  drive  to  dark  despair. 
To  Jesus  come  with  trustful  mind, 
And  peace  in  absolution  find. 

11  All  praise.  Eternal  Son,  to  Thee, 
For  absolution  full  and  free, 
In  which  Thou  showest  forth  Thy  grace ; 
From  false  indulgence  guard  our  race. 

12  Praise  God,  the  Father  and  the  vSon 
And  Holy  Spirit,  Three  in  One, 
As  'twas,  is  now,  and  so  shall  be, 
World  without  end,  eternally.

2  Corruption  creeps  through  all  our  powers, 
And  withers  all  life's  heavenly  flowers ; 
In  guilt  we  draw  our  earliest  breath, 
And  reap  its  fruits  of  woe  and  death. 


4  But  Christ,  the  second  Adam,  came 
To  bear  our  sin  and  woe  and  shame, 
To  be  our  life,  and  by  His  grace 
To  new-create  our  fallen  race.

Flow  thoughts  and  deeds  of  sin  alone ;  That  grace  has  changed  our  broken  powers;

Wliat  God's  most  holy  precept  claims 

No  child  of  Adam  renders  ; 
But  from  the  throne  dread  vengeance  flames. 

And  speaks  the  curse  in  thunders. 
The  flesh  ne'er  promjits  those  pure  desires 
That  'hove  all  else  the  Law  requires : 

Relief  by  lyaw  is  hopeless ! 


3  But  all  the  Law  must  be  fulfilled, 
Or  we  must  sink  despairing; 
Then  came  tlie  Son— so  God  had  willed, — 

Our  human  nature  sharing, 
Who  for  us  all  the  Law  obeyed. 
And  thus  His  Father's  vengeance  stayed. 
Which  over  us  impended. 


Now  to  the  Cicxl  of  matchless  grace, 

To  Father,  Son,  and  Spirit, 
We  lift  our  highest  songs  of  praise ; 

All  j)rai.se  His  favors  merit.

And  save  us  by  His  mighty  arm, —

LUTHER'S  HYMN       No.  20 


1  Dear  Christians,  one  and  all  rejoice, 
With  exultation  springing, 
And,  with  united  heart  and  voice 

And  holy  rapture  singing. 
Proclaim  the  wonders  God  hath  done, 
How  His  right  arm  the  vict'ry  won ; 
Right  dearly  it  hath  cost  Him. 


6  The  Son  obeyed  right  cheerfully, 
And,  born  of  virgin  mother, 
Came  down  upon  the  earth  to  me. 
That  He  might  be  my  brother : 
His  mighty  power  doth  work  unseen, 
He  came  in  fashion  poor  and  mean. 
And  took  the  devil  captive. 


Fast  bound  in  Satan's  chains  I  lay. 
Death  brooded  darkly  o'er  me, 

Sin  was  my  torment  night  and  day. 
In  sin  my  mother  bore  me  ; 

Deeper  and  deeper  still  I  fell, 

Life  had  become  a  living  hell, 
So  firmly  sin  possessed  me. 


He  sweetly  said  :  Hold  fast  by  me, 
I  am  thy  Rock  and  Castle, 

Thy  Ransom  I  myself  will  be. 
For  thee  I  strive  and  wrestle : 

For  I  am  with  thee,  I  am  thine 

And  evermore  thou  shalt  be  mine, 
'  The  foe  shall  not  divide  us. 


3  My  good  works  so  imperfect  were, 
They  had  no  power  to  aid  me  ; 
My  will  God's  judgments  could  not  bear, 

Yea,  prone  to  evil  made  me  : 
Grief  drove  me  to  despair,  and  I 
Had  nothing  left  me  but  to  die ; 
To  hell  I  fast  was  sinking. 


8  The  foe  shall  shed  my  precious  bloody 

Me  of  my  life  bereaving ; 
All  this  I  suffer  for  thy  good, 

Be  steadfast  and  believing  : 
Life  shall  from  death  the  vict'ry  win, 
My  innocence  shall  bear  thy  sin. 

So  art  thou  blest  forever. 


Then  God  beheld  my  wretched  state 

With  deep  commiseration ; 
He  thought  upon  His  mercy  great. 

And  willed  my  soul's  salvation  ; 
He  turned  to  me  a  Father's  heart; 
Not  small  the  cost  I  to  heal  my  smart. 

He  gave  His  best  and  dearest. 


9  Now  to  my  Father  I  depart. 

From  earth  to  heaven  ascending. 
Thence  heavenly  wisdom  to  impart, 

The  Holy  Spirit  sending  : 
He  shall  in  trouble  comfort  thee, 
Teach  thee  to  know  and  follow  me, 
And  to  the  truth  conduct  thee. 


He  spoke  to  His  beloved  Son  : 
'Tis  time  to  take  compassion  : 

Then  go,  bright  Jewel  of  my  crown, 
And  bring  to  man  salvation  ; 

From  sin  and  sorrow  set  him  free. 

Slay  bitter  death  for  him,  that  he 
May  live  with  Thee  forever. 


10  What  I  have  done  and  taught,  teach  thou^ 
My  ways  forsake  thou  never, 
So  shall  my  kingdom  flourish  now. 

And  God  be  praised  forever : 
Take  heed  lest  men  with  base  alloy 
The  heavenly  treasure  should  destroy ; 
This  counsel  I  bequeath  thee.

4  O  depth  of  love,  in  which,  past  finding, 

My  sins  through  Christ's  blood  disappear; 
This  is  for  wounds  the  safest  binding, 

There  is  no  condemnation  here  ; 
For  Jesus'  blood  forever  cries  : 
Free  mercy,  mercy,  to  the  skies  ! 

5  I  never  will  forget  this  crying, 

In  faitli  I'll  trust  it  all  my  days, 
And,  when  o'er  all  my  sins  I'm  sighing, 

I  towards  my  Father's  heart  will  gaze  ; 
This  always  doth  to  me. extend 
A  mercv  that  will  never  end. 


()  Be  it  with  me  as  He  is  willing, 

Whose  mercy  is  a  boundless  sea ; 
May  He  himself  my  heart  be  stilling,, 

That  this  may  ne'er  forgotten  be; 
Then  it  will  rest,  in  joy  and  woe, 
On  mercy,  while  it  beats  below. 

7  On  this  foundation,  I,  unshrinking. 
Will  stand,  while  I  on  earth  remain; 
This  shall  engage  my  acting,  thinking, 

While  I  the  breath  of  life  retain  ; 
Then  sing  I  in  eternity, 
Unfathomed  Mercv,  still  of  Thee.

SALVATION  BY  GRACE       No.  32 


1  By  grace  I'm  saved — grace  free  and  boundless!  6.  By  grace  !  but  think  not,  thou  who  livest 
My  heart,  believ'st  thou  this  or  not?  Securely  on  in  godless  ways. 

Why  tremblest  thou  with  terror  groundless?  That  thou,  though  all  are  called,  receivest 
Has  ever  God  a  falsehood  taught?  The  promised  rest  that  wakes  our  praise: 

His  Word  is  true — then  this  must  be  :  By  grace  none  find  in  heaven  a  place 


By  grace  there  is  a  crown  for  thee. 

2  By  grace !  our  works  are  all  rejected, 

All  claims  of  merit  pass  for  naught ; 
The  mighty  Savior,  long  expected, 

To  us  this  blissful  truth  has  brought, 
That  He  by  death  redeems  our  race, 
And  we  are  saved  alone  by  grace. 

3  By  grace  !  mark  well  this  phrase's  meaning, 

When  sin  rolls  sorrows  o'er  thy  breast. 
When  Satan's  threats  with  pride  o'erweening, 

When  troubled  conscience  sighs  for  rest: 
What  reason  ne'er  can  comprehend 
It  pleases  God  by  grace  to  send. 

4  By  grace  His  Son,  on  earth  appearing, 

Vouchsafed  beneath  thy  woe  to  bend  ; 
Hadst  thou,  damnation  justly  fearing, 

Done  aught  to  render  Him  thy  friend? 
Was't  not  that  He  thy  welfare  sought, 
And  but  by  grace  deliverance  wrought? 


Who  live  in  sin  in  hope  of  grace. 

7  By  grace!  they  who  have  heard  this  sentence 

Must  bid  hypocrisy  farewell ; 
For  only  after  deep  repentance, 

The  soul  what  grace  imports  can  tell ; 
To  sin  while  grace  a  trifle  seems. 
To  faith  it  bright  with  glory  beams. 

8  By  grace  !  the  timid  hearts  that  languish 

Find  access  to  the  Father's  heart, 
When  conflicts  fierce  and  bittter  anguish 

Bid  all  their  joy  and  hopes  depart. 
Where,  ofttimes,  should  I  strength  obtain, 
Did  grace  my  anchor  not  remain  ! 

9  By  grace!  on  this  in  death  I'll  rest  me. 

Rejoicing  e'en  though  feeling  naught; 
I  know  my  sin — it  oft  oppressed  me — 

But  Him,  too,  who  my  soul  hath  bought: 
My  heart  exults — grief  flees  apace — 
Because  my  soul  is  saved  by  grace. 


5  By  grace!  this  ground  of  our  salvation      10  By  grace  !  O  sin  and  vSatan  hear  it ! 


As  long  as  God  is  true  endures : 
What  saints  have  penned  by  inspiration, 

WTiat  God  to  our  poor  soul  secures. 
What  all  our  faith  must  rest  upon. 


I  bear  my  flag  of  faith  in  hand. 
And  pass,  in  spite  of  doubts,  nor  fear  it, 

The  Red  Sea  to  the  promised  land ; 
I  hold  the  Word  my  Savior  taught 


Is  grace,  free  grace  through  His  dear  Son.        As  certain,  whether  felt  or  not.

2  Take  and  eat,  the  bread  here  ofTered  ; 
Kternal  life  by  Christ  is  proffered  ; 

His  peace  and  comfort  be  with  you ! 
Take,  and  unto  life  in  heaven 
Drink  of  salvation's  cup  now  given, 
Inherit  Jesus'  kingdom  true. 


Watch,  let  your  ev'rj'  breath 
Be  faithful  unto  death  ! 

Amen  !  amen  ! 

Straight  is  the  way, 

And  few  are  they 
The  Judge  shall  crown  and  call  His  own.

2  The  night  in  which  He  was  betrayed, 
He  blessed  the  bread  and  cup,  and  .said, 
Eat,  drink,  and  named  the  given  good  : 
"This  is  My  Body  and  My  Blood." 


5  O  may  we  ne'er  unworthy  prove 
Of  Je.sus'  all-enduring  love  ! 
Nor  doubt  the  Master's  work  and  Word, 
And  thus  reject  Him  as  the  Lord. 


3  Israel's  Pa.schal -feast  had  long 
Kept  waiting  hope  in  Israel  strong. 
The  Lamb  of  God  now  gave,  instead, 
Himself  as  heavenly  drink  and  bread. 


G  His  body,  once  as  ran.som  given. 
Is  proffered  here  as  pledge  of  heaven  ; 
His  blood,  shed  for  us  on  the  tree, 
Here  cleanses  from  iniquity. 


4  Keep  ye  this  feast  confessing  Me, 

Whose  death  alone  could  make  you  free. 
Your  souls  and  bodies,  dearly  bought. 
Yield  not  to  sin  :  forget  Me  not ! 


7  Lord,  help  our  faith  to  grasp  the  Word, 
That  we  in  grace  may  near  Thy  board, 
And  here  di.scern  what  Thou  dost  give, 
Partake  of  life  and  ever  live  !

2  That  we  may  never  this  forget,  6  Such  grace  and  mercy  must  be  sought 

Thy  body  for  our  food  is  set ;  By  those  whom  sorrow  long  hath  taught; 

And  in  the  wine  Thou  giv'st  Thy  blood  If  anguish  ne'er  thy  heart  hath  rent, 

To  cleanse  our  souls,  a  sacred  flood.  Be  not  thy  knee  there  vainly  bent. 


3  Let  none,  impenitent  and  bold. 
This  sacred  feast  profanely  hold  : 
He  who  unworthy  sitteth  there 
Shall  sink  to  death  and  dark  despair. 

4  But  praise  the  Father,  by  whose  love 
The  Son  descended  from  above, 
Became  the  bread  of  life  to  thee, 
And  bore  thy  sins  upon  the  tree. 


7  Our  Savior  saith  :  Come  unto  me. 
Ye  who  now  feel  your  poverty  : 
My  mercy  I  will  freely  give, 

Your  anguished  conscience  I'll  relieve. 

8  Could'st  thou  unaided  this  obtain. 
Then  have  I  shed  my  blood  in  vain ; 
This  feast  was  vainly  spread  for  thee, 
If  thou  require  no  food  from  me. 


5  Firmly  on  this  thou  must  believe ;  9  If  in  thy  heart  this  faith  doth  rest, 

That  here  the  sick  their  food  receive.  Which  thou  hast  here  in  words  confessed, 

WTiich  heals  them  from  the  wounds  of  sin,     A  welcome  guest  thou  here  shalt  be, 
Creating  heav'nly  health  within.  And  Christ  Himself  shall  banquet  thee. 

10  But  fruits  must  still  thy  faith  approve ; 
Thy  neighbor  thou  must  truly  love ; 
That  love  let  him  from  thee  receive, 
Which  here  to  thee  thy  God  doth  give.

Although  Thou  didst  ascend  to  heaven, 

And  saints  there  fall  before  Thee, 
And  now  to  mortals  'tis  not  given 

By  sight  here  to  adore  Thee,  • 

Till  Thou  shalt  come  from  heaven  again 
Upon  Thy  throne,  to  judge  all  men, 

When  all  shall  lx)w  before  Thee ; 

Yet  art  Thou  ever  nigh  us,  Lord, 
And  with  Thy  congregation  ; 

And  not  confined,  so  says  Thy  Word, 
To  any  habitation. 

Thy  Word  still,  as  a  wall  unmoved, 

Stands  finn,  however  tried  and  proved 
By  men, — though  e'er  so  learned. 

'•  Eat.drink;"  "  This  is  my  lx>dy — blood;" 
Thou  sayest !  We  believe  Thee  ! 

Here  with  our  li])s  we  take  this  food, 
-^nd  orally  receive  Thee. 

What  Thou  hast  s])oken,  that  nmst  be. 

Thou  art  almighty,  and  with  Thee 
Impossible  is  nothing! 

Frail  reason  doth  indeed  not  see 

How  Thou  in  many  ]>laces, 
With  self-same  body.  Lord,  canst  be. 

But  faith  Thy  Word  embraces.

How  it  can  be,  I  leave  to  Thee, 
Thy  Word,  O  Lord,  sufficeth  me ; 
And  Thou  wilt  that  we  trust  it. 

6  Lord !  I  believe,  in  simple  trust, 

'Tis  all  that  doth  become  me, 
For  I  am  nought  but  sinful  dust : 

O  take  Thy  Word  not  from  me ! 
Thy  Baptisin,  vSupper,  and  Thy  Word 
IMy  comfort  are  and  stay,  O  Lord, 

For  these  contain  my  treasure. 

7  Grant,  that  in  humble  penitence 

We  come  and  stand  l^efore  Thee, 
Intent  with  new  olxxlience 

Hereafter  to  adore  Thee  ; 
Refresh  us  with  Thy  saving  grace. 
And  kee])  us  linn  throughout  our  days, 

Then  will  our  walk  be  godly. 

8  For  such  consoling  Supper,  I^ord, 

Be  praised  throughout  all  ages! 
Preserve  it  pure,  since  'gainst  the  word 

"This  is!  "  the  world  so  rages. 
Grant,  that  Thy  Ixxly  and  Tliy  blood  , 
Be  my  sole  comfort  and  sweet  food 

In  my  last  hour.     Yea,  Amen  !

His  tender  care  extends  ; 
The  heav'nly  food  shall  never  fail 
On  which  the  soul  depends.

As  with  treinV)liiig  awe  and  wonder 
On  Thy  mighty  works  I  ponder. 
How.  by  mystery  surrounded 
Depths  no  man  hath  ever  sounded, 
None  may  dare  to  pierce  unbidden 
Secrets  tliat  witli  Thee  are  hidden.

That  this  bread  is  never  lessened 
Though  it  nourish  thousands  present, 
That  with  wine  the  blood  of  Jesus 
Here  is  given  from  sin  to  save  us. 
O  these  mysteries  unsounded,

Lord,  how  vast  and  deep  love's  treasure  : 
Through  the  gifts  Thou  here  dost  give  me 
As  Thy  guest  in  heaven  receive  me.

2  Lo,  I  confess  mv  sins. 

And  mourn  their  wretched  bands  : 
A  contrite  heart  is  ever  wont 
To  find  grace  at  Thy  hands, 

3  Thy  body  and  Thy  blood, 

Once  slain  and  shed  for  me. 
Are  taken  at  Thy  table  here — 
O  wondrous  mystery ! 

4  Here  I  with  mouth  and  soul. 

Incomprehensibly, 
Shall  eat  the  precious  flesh  of  Christ 
In  blest  reality. 


5  Search  not  how  this  takes  place. 

Nor  whether  it  can  be  ; 
God  can  accomplish  vastly  more 
Than  seemeth  plain  to  thee. 

6  Vouchsafe,  O  blessed  Lord, 

That  earth  and  hell  combined, 
May  ne'er  about  this  Sacrament 
A  doubt  raise  in  my  mind. 

7  And  may  I  never  fail. 

To  thank  Thee  day  and  night. 
For  Thy  true  bo<ly  and  true  blood, 
O  God,  my  peace  and  light.

2  As  a  sinful  castaway 

This  is  all  my  trust  and  stay, 
That  Thy  blood  and  righteousness 
Robes  me  in  a  spotless  dress, 
Fits  me  as  a  saint  to  meet 
God  before  the  judgment  seat : 
God  is  reconciled  to  me — 
Hid,  O  spotless  Lamb,  in  Thee. 

3  Though  because  of  sin  I'm  sad. 
This  assurance  makes  me  glad. 
Other  helpers  there  are  none, 
Lord,  I  cleave  to  Thee  alone ; 
Hence  I  come  to  Thee  anew 
Thy  remembrance  to  renew, 
And  to  testify  again 

To  Thy  love — for  sinners  slain. 


1 1 ^ ^- 

O  that  I  could  celebrate 
Worthily  Thy  passion  great; 
God-forsaken,  Thou  didst  press 
To  Thy  heart  my  bitterness ! 
Golgotha — Gethsemane — 
My  sins.  Lamb,  prepared  for  Thee! 
There  I  see  Thee  in  Thy  blood, 
Shed  for  my  eternal  good. 

May  I  not,  to  my  great  loss. 
Coldly  stand  beneath  the  cross. 
Unto  judgment  never  take 
What  Thou  offeredst  for  my  sake! 
Bread  of  life !  here  strengthen  me 
By  Thy  life  to  live  in  Thee, 
And  Thy  blood  renew  my  will 
Thine  alone,  Lord,  to  fulfill. 


1!)olv  (Xommuniou 


This  my  purpose,  to  emlure 
In  Thy  service  and  keep  pure, 
Ev'er  keep  Thou  firm  in  me, 
Till  I  pass  from  strife  to  Thee. 
Lord,  I  tremble  now  with  dread, 
Lest  again  I  falt'ring  tread 
Weakly  into  lurking  sin  ; 
Yet  I  feel  its  might  within. 


Should,  alas  !  I  err  from  Thee, 
Constant  Savior,  seek  Thou  me; 
Show  me  wherein  I  do  wrong. 
In  my  weakness,  be  Thou  strong! 
Patiently  my  failings  bear, 
Keep  me  wholly  in  Thy  care; 
And  when  I  bewail  my  sin. 
Grant  me.  Lord,  Thy  grace  again. 


When  in  its  seductive  way 
It  would  lead  my  heart  astray. 
Help  me  God,  with  bated  breath, 
Look  on  Jesus'  bitter  death ! 
WTiile  I  see  Thy  thorn-crowned  head, 
Bow  beneath  God's  judgment  dread. 
Let  me  not  through  sin  despise. 
Lamb  of  God,  Thy  sacrifice. 

Balthazar  Miinter,  ca.    17 


Ever  let  me  firmly  hold, 

My  Redeemer,  to  Thy  fold.    . 

Help  me  show  Thy  saving  death 

In  the  power  of  living  faith. 

And  to  shun  each  sinful  joy 

As  a  poisonous  alloy. 

That  eternally  above 

I  may  praise  Thy  matchless  love  !

2  Thou  Heavenly  Brightness!  Light  Divine! 
O  deep  within  my  heart  now  shine, 

And  make  Thee  there  an  altar ! 
Fill  me  with  joy  and  strength  to  be 
Thy  member,  ever  joined  to  Thee 

In  love  that  cannot  falter; 
Toward  Thee  longing 
Doth  possess  me ;  turn  and  bless  me, 
For  Thy  gladness 
Eye  and  heart  here  pine  in  sadness. 

3  But  if  Thou  look  on  me  in  love, 
There  straightway  falls  from  God  above 

A  ray  of  purest  pleasure ; 
Thy  Word  and  vSpirit,  flesh  and  blood. 
Refresh  my  soul  with  heavenly  food, 

Philipp 


Thou  art  my  hidden  treasure  ; 
Let  Thy  grace,  Lord, 
Warm  and  cheer  me,  O  draw  near  me ; 
Thou  hast  taught  us 
Thee  to  seek,  since  Thou  hast  sought  us! 

4  Here  will  I  rest,  and  this  hold  fast : 
The  Lord  I  love  is  First  and  Last, 

The  End  as  the  Beginning  ! 
Here  I  can  calmly  die,  for  Thou 
Wilt  raise  me  where  Thou  dwellest  now, 

Above  all  tears,  all  sinning; 
Amen !  Amen  ! 

Come,  Lord  Jesus,  soon  release  us  ; 
With  deep  yearning. 
Lord,  we  look  for  Thy  returning!

None  but  Jesus  crucified  ; 
Savior,  I  am  only  Thine, 

Other  love  shall  ne'er  ])e  mine. 

7  Thou  alone,  my  God  and  Lord, 
Art  my  glory  and  reward  ; 
Thou  hast  bled  for  me  and  died, 
I  will  be  no  other's  l^ride. 

8  Come,  then.  Lamb  for  sinners  slain, 
Come  and  ease  me  of  my  pain  ; 
Evennore  I  cry  to  Thee : 

Jesus,  Jesus,  come  to  me ! 

9  Patiently  I  wait  and  pray, 
Jesus,  do  not  say  me  nay ; 

That  when  death  shall  come  to  me. 
Thou  my  Jesus  sweet  wilt  be.

2  In  Thine  arms  I  rest  me. 
Foes  ^vho  wouhl  molest  me 

Cannot  reach  me  here  ; 
Though  the  earth  be  shaking, 
Even.-  heart  be  quaking, 

Jesus  calms  my  fear ; 
Sin  and  hell,  in  conflict  fell. 

With  their  bitter  storms  assail  me ; 

Jesus  will  not  fail  me. 

3  Satan,  lo  !  I  brave  thee. 
Hell,  thou  shalt  not  have  me, 

Fear  I  cast  away  ! 
Tread,  O  world,  thy  mazes, 
I  shall  sing  my  praises 

Safe,  serene  alway. 
Jesus'  arm  keeps  me  from  harm ; 

Earth  and  hell  o'ercome.  must  hide 

Howsoe'er  they  pride  them. 

4  Wealth.  I  will  not  heed  thee, 
For  I  do  not  need  thee, 

Jesus  is  my  choice  ; 
Honors,  ye  may  glisten, 
Rut  I  will  not  listen 


To  your  tempting  voice  ; 
Pain  or  loss,  nor  shame  nor  cross, 
E'er  to  leave  my  Lord  shall  move  me, 

Since  He  deigns  to  love  me. 

5  Farewell,  thou  who  choosest 
Earth,  and  heaven  refusest. 

Thou  wilt  tempt  in  vain  ; 
Farewell,  sins,  nor  blind  me, 
Get  ye  all  behind  me. 

Come  not  forth  again  : 
Past  your  hour,  ()  pride  and  power ; 

Worldly  life,  thy  bonds  I  sever. 

Farewell  now  forever ! 

6  Hence,  all  fears  and  sadness, 
them,         For  the  Ixsrd  of  gladness, 

Jesus,  enters  in  ; 
They  who  love  the  Father, 
Though  the  storms  may  gather, 

Still  have  peace  within  ; 
Yea,  -^vhate'er  I  here  must  bear. 

Still  in  Thee  lies  purest  ])leasure, 

Jesus,  priceless  treasure !

Safe  with  Him  from  earthly  strife. 
He  sustains  the  hidden  life.

Uncrumbled,  still  shall  last; 
Through  .sorrow  it  bides  with  me. 

Mine  when  to  death  I  bow. 
In  heaven  it  will  a.ssure  me 
A  crow  n  to  deck  my  brow.

Let  ev'ning  blush  to  own  a  star ;

O'er  this  benighted  soul  of  mine.

On  whom  my  hopes  of  heaven  depend 
No;  when  I  blush,  be  this  my  shame, 
That  I  no  more  revere  His  Name.

Let  midnight  be  ashamed  of  noon  :  Wlien  I've  no  guilt  to  wash  away, 

Tis  midnight  with  my  soul  till  He  No  tear  to  wipe,  no  good  to  crave. 

Bright  Morning  Star,  bid  darkness  flee.  No  fears  to  quell,  no  soul  to  save, 

6  Till  then — nor  is  my  boasting  vain — 
Till  then  I  boast  a  Savior  slain  ! 
And,  oh,  may  this  my  glory  be, 
That  Christ  is  not  ashamed  of  me  !

Never  safe  except  witli  Thee,

Wholly  to  Thy  mighty  hand  : 

All  the  powers  that  Thou  dost  lend  me 

Let  me  use  at  Thy  conmiand  ; 
Thou  my  boast,  my  strength  divine, 
Keep  me  with  Thee,  I  am  Thine. 

7  Thus  afresh  with  each  new  morning 
Save  me  from  the  power  of  sin. 

Hourly  let  me  feel  Thy  warning 
Ruling,  prompting  all  within, 
Till  my  final  rest  be  come, 
And  Thine  angel  bear  me  home.

2  God,  I  thank  Thee,  in  Thy  keeping, 

Safely  have  I  slumbered'  here  ; 
Thou  hast  guarded  me  while  sleeping, 

From  all  danger,  pain,  and  fear; 
And  the  cunning  of  my  foe 
Hath  not  wrought  my  overthrow. 

3  Let  the  night  of  sin  that  shrouded 

All  my  life,  with  this  depart; 
Shine  on  me  with  beams  unclouded : 

Jesus,  in  Thy  loving  heart, 
Are  my  help  and  hope  alone, 
For  the  evil  I  have  aone. 

4  Help  me  as  the  morn  is  breaking, 

In  the  spirit  to  arise. 
So  from  careless  sloth  awaking, 

That  when  o'er  the  aged  skies 
Shall  the  morn  of  doom  appear, 
I  may  see  it,  free  from  fear.

Anon.     (Ancient.)     First  pub.  in  G.  B,,  Hamburg 


God  shall  do  my  advising. 

Whose  might  with  wisdom  blends  ; 
May  He  bless  rest  and  rising, 

My  efforts,  means,  and  ends  ! 
To  God,  forever  blessed. 

Will  I  with  mine  confide  me, 

And  suffer  Him  to  guide  me 
As  seemeth  to  Him  best. 

Amen  :  Lord,  Thou  wilt  hear  me, 
With  this  I  close  my  prayer  ; 

In  all  I  do  wilt  cheer  me, 
And  keep  me  in  Thy  care. 

So  I  put  forth  my  hands. 

And  look  not  long  behind  me, 
But  ply  the  task  assigne<l  me 

By  God,  as  He  commands.

And  let  His  gifts  of  grace 
To  all  good  actions  win  us.

2  We  thank  Thee,  Father,  that  this  day  Unto  our  souls  impute  it  not, 

Thy  angels  watched  around  our  way.  And  bless  with  peaceful  sleep  our  coL 

And  free  from  harm  and  vexing  fear 

Thy  grace  has  kept,  and  brought  us  here.     4  Thy  angels  guard  our  sleeping  hours, 

And  keep  afar  all  evil  powers ; 

3  We  own  that  we  have  angered  Thee,  From  terrors,  fire,  and  every  harm. 
Do  Thou  forgive  us  graciously.  This  night  protect  us  by  Thy  arm.

Are  glad  the  day's  expired, 

That  work  comes  to  an  end  ; 
My  heart,  be  filled  with  gladness 
That  God  from  all  earth's  sadness, 

And  from  sin's  toil  relief  will  send. 

6  Ye  aching  limbs !  now  rest  you. 
For  toil  hath  sore  oppressed  you, 

Lie  down,  my  weary  head; 
A  sleep  shall  once  o'ertake  you 
From  which  earth  ne'er  shall  wake  you, 
Within  a  cold  and  narrow  bed. 

7  Mine  eyes  .scarce  ope  are  keeping, 
A  moment,  I'll  be  sleeping, 

Soul,  body, — fare  ye  well ! 
In  grace  Thy  care  then  make  them 
May  evil  ne'er  o'ertake  them.

Sing,  "This  child  shall  uninjured  be!  "

From  every  evil  surely 

Our  God  will  guard  your  heads ;

And  golden-armed  watch  o'er  your  beds.

1.  Since  now  the   day  hath  reached  its  close, 


I 

And  sun-light  shines  no  more, 


But  Thou,  my  Lord,  no  rest  dost  know 
No  slumber  dims  Thy  sight. 

Thou  hatest  darkness  as  Thy  foe, 
Since  Thou  Thyself  art  light. 

3  O  Lord,  I  pray,  remember  me 

Throughout  the  shades  of  night, 
And  grant  to  me  most  graciously 
The  shield  of  Thy  great  might. 

4  And  foil  Thou  Satan's  purpose  fell 

Through  Thy  swift  angel-arm. 
Then  free  from  care.  I'll  rest  me  well 
And  safe  from  every  harm. 

o  I  feel  indeed  through  guilt  undone, 
It  cries  aloud  to  Thee  : 
But  yet,  the  mercy  from  Thy  Son 
Hath  full  atoned  for  me. 


6  Him  I  present  Thee  as  my  Bail, 

While  suppliant  at  Thy  feet ; 
With  such  assurance  I'll  not  fail 
Before  Thy  judgment-seat. 

7  Away,  vain,  idle  thoughts  depart! 

Roam  not  my  soul  abroad  ; 
For  now  I  build  within  my  heart 
A  temple  to  my  God. 

8  And  hereupon  my  eyes  I  close. 

And  fall  asleep  heart-glad  ; 
My  God  doth  watch  o'er  my  repose, 
Why  should  my  heart  be  sad? 

9  And  thus  I  live  and  die  to  Thee, 

Thou  Sabaoth  strong,  indeed  ! 
In  life  and  death  Thou  helpest  me 
From  everv  fear  and  need. 


10  Should  this  night  prove  the  last  for  me 
In  this  dark  vale  of  tears. 
Then  lead  me,  Lord,  in  heaven  to  Thee 
.\nd  my  elect  compeers.

And  I,  perhaps,  am  near  my  home;  Peace  is  the  pillow  of  my  head  : 

But  He  forgives  my  follies  past,  His  ever  watchful  eye  will  keep 

And  strength  sup])lies  for  days  to  come.  Its  constant  guard  around  my  bed. 

4  Faith  in  Thy  Name  forbids  my  fear ; 
O  may  Thy  presence  ne'er  depart! 
And  in  the  morning  may  I  bear 
Thy  loving-kindness  on  my  heart  I

2  The  veil  of  night  is  closing 
Around  a  world  reposing 
*   In  calm  and  holy  trust ; 
It  seems  like  one  still  chamber, 
WTiere  weary  hearts  remember 
No  more  the  sorrows  of  the  dust. 


5  Thy  saving  health,  O  grant  us, 
Lord,  that  we  ne'er  may  vaunt  us 

In  vain  and  fleeting  show; 
But  child-like  and  confiding, 
Follow  Thy  gentle  guiding. 

And  in  Thy  paths  with  gladness  ga. 


3  Behold  the  full  moon  beaming ! 
So  round  and  fair  'tis  gleaming. 

Yet  half  is  hid  from  sight. 
So,  oft  on  earth,  deceive  us 
Things  that  now  seem  so  grievous. 

Because  the  half  is  veiled  in  night. 


6  When  death  comes  to  release  us 
With  kindly  hand,  and  frees  us 

Ere  life's  a  weary  load  ; 
Then,  when  earth's  ties  we  sever. 
Take  us  to  Thee  forever. 

Thou  kind, Thou  true, Thou  gracious  Ciod! 


4  We,  p>oor,  frail  mortals,  groping. 
Half  fearing  and  half  hoping, 

In  darkness  seek  our  way  ; 
Our  airy  cobwebs  spinning 
With  erring  and  with  sinning, 

Far  from  the  mark  we  stray. 


7  The  night's  cool  breath  is  creeping ; 
Brethren,  in  God's  gootl  keeping 

Your  weary  eyelids  close. 
His  grace  from  ill  defend  us. 
And  peaceful  slumber  send  us. 

And  soothe  our  ]x>or  sick  neighbor's  woes !

2  All  praise  to  Christ  my  Savior  give, 
For  He  this  day  hath  let  me  live 
My  life  away  in  His  dear  name  : 
"To  live  is  Christ,  to  die  is  gain." 

S  O  Holy  Ghost,  Thy  grace  impart. 
To  rest  in  Christ  my  troubled  heart. 
O  sweet  the  rest  Thy  grace  doth  bring, 
And  bids  me  to  my  Savior  cling. 


4  Now  say  good  night !  may  angels  bright 
Keep  watching  o'er  me  through  the  night, 
And  spread  their  guardian,  heavenly  wings, 
O'er  these  my  wearied,  slumb'ring  limbs. 

5  "And  now  I  lay  me  down  to  sleep; 
I  pray  Thee,  Lord,  my  soul  to  keep. 
If  I  should  die  before  I  wake, 

I  pray  Thee,  Lord,  my  soul  to  take." 


6  Now  say  good  night !    to  all  good  night ! 
God  keep  you  safe  till  morning's  light. 
That  with  His  praise  you  all  may  wake ; 
"And  this  I  ask  for  Jesus  sake."

2  He  who  hitherto  hath  fed  me, 
And  to  many  a  joy  hath  led  me, 

Is  and  shall  be  ever  mine  ; 
He  who  did  so  gently  school  me, 
He  who  still  doth  guide  and  rule  me. 

Will  not  leave  me  now  to  pine. 

3  Shall  T  wearv-  me  with  fretting 
O'er  vain  trifles  and  regretting 

Things  that  never  can  remain? 
I  will  strive  but  that  to  win  me 
Which  can  shed  true  rest  within  me. 

Rest  the  world  nmst  seek  in  vain. 


4  Wlien  my  heart  with  longing  sickens, 
Hope  again  my  courage  quickens; 

For  my  wish  shall  be  fulfilled, 
If  it  please  His  will  most  tender : 
Life  and  soul  I  will  surrender 

Unto  Him  on  whom  I  build. 

5  Well  He  knows  how  best  to  grant  me 
All  the  longing  hopes  that  haunt  me ; 

All  things  have  their  proper  day  ; 
I  to  Him  would  dictate  never. 
As  God  wills,  so  be  it  ever, 

When  He  wills,  I  will  obey. 


6  If  on  earth  He  bids  me  linger, 
He  will  guide  me  with  His  finger 

Through  the  years  that  now  look  dim  ;    • 
All  that  earth  has  fleets  and  changes, 
As  a  river  onward  ranges. 
But  I  rest  in  peace  on  Him.

With  ready  heart  and  willing, 
Whate'er  Thou  shalt  command, 

My  calling  here  fulfilling. 
And  do  it  when  I  ought, 

With  all  my  strength,  and  bless 
The  work  I  thus  have  wrought. 

For  Thou  must  give  success. 

And  let  me  promise  naught 

But  I  can  keep  it  truly. 
Abstain  from  idle  words. 

And  guard  my  lips  still  duly  ; 
And  grant,  when  in  my  place 

I  must  and  ought  to  sjK'ak, 
My  words  due  jK>wer  and  grace, 

Nor  let  me  wound  the  weak. 


4  If  dangers  gather  round 

Still  keep  me  calm  and  fearless ; 
Help  me  to  bear  the  cross, 

When  life  is  dark  and  cheerless ; 
To  overcome  my  foe 

With  words  and  actions  kind  ; 
When  counsel  I  would  know, 

Good  counsel  let  me  find. 

5  And  let  me  be  with  all 

In  |x^ace  and  friendship  living, 
As  far  as  Christians  may  ; 

And  if  Thou  aught  art  giving 
Of  wealth  and  honors  fair, 

O  this  refuse  me  not, 
That  nought  be  mingled  there 

Of  goo<ls  unjustly  got.

6  And  if  a  longer  life 

Be  here  on  earth  decreed  me, 
And  Thon  through  many  a  strife 

To  ripe  old  age  wilt  lead  me, 
Thy  patience  in  me  shed, 

Avert  all  sin  and  shame. 
And  crown  my  hoary  head 

With  pure  untarnished  fame. 


Let  nothing  here  on  earth 
Me  from  my  Savior  sever 

And  when  I  die,  O  take 
Mv  soul  to  Thee  forever  : 


And  let  my  body  have 
A  little  place  to  sleep 

Beside  my  kindred's  grave, 
And  o'er  it  vigil  keep. 


8  And  when  the  Day  is  come, 

And  all  the  dead  are  waking, 
O  reach  me  down  Thy  hand. 

Thyself  my  slumbers  breaking; 
Then  let  me  hear  Thy  voice. 

And  change  this  earthly  frame. 
And  bid  me  aye  rejoice 

With  those  who  love  Thy  name.

li  WTien  man  and  wife  are  mated  well,  4 

In  harmon}^  together  dwell 

In  chaste  and  faithful  union. 
Then  grows  their  fortune  with  their  love.

Rejoice  at  such  communion  ; 
No  storm,     No  worm 
Can  destroy  that,  ||  Can  e'er  gnaw  that, 

Which  God  giveth 

To  the  pair  that  in  Him  liveth.

Who  first  this  order  did  decree  ; 

It  was  a  higher  Father, 
Who  loved  and  loveth  us  for  aye, 
And  from  whose  lips,  when  grieved,  each  day 

We  friendly  counsel  gather  ; 
Good  end  ||  He'll  send 
To  our  doing  ||  And  pursuing. 

Wisely  guiding 

All  our  planning  and  providing. 


A  time  will  come,  it  cannot  fail, 
When  we  'neath  trials  sore  shall  quail, 

And  tears  be  freely  flowing  ; 
To  him  who  bears  it  patiently. 
By  God's  grace  shall  His  sorrow  be 

Turned  into  joy  o'erflowing. 
Waive  care,  ||  Wait,  bear; 
He  is  near  thee,  !|  Who  can  cheer  thee, 

For  thy  sadness 

He  will  give  thee  oil  of  gladness. 

Come  hither  then,  my  King  so  bless'd  ! 
In  trials  guide,  in  pain  give  rest. 

In  anxious  times  relieving  ! 
To  Thee  we  shall  ascribe  the  praise. 
Our  hearts  and  voices  we  shall  raise 

In  one  loud  song,  thanks  giving, 
Till  we  II  With  Thee 
Shall  be  dwelling,  ||  And  there  telling 

Thy  praise  ever, 

Nevennore  from  Thee  to  sever.

A  type  of  Jesus  and  His  Bride, 

Beloved  and  honored  at  His  side. 

2  Wliere  manly  worth  and  gentle  grace       5 
In  godliness  keep  step  apace. 

There  wedded  love  grows  never  stale, 
Nor  heaven's  blessings  ever  fail. 


Attune  their  souls  to  worship  Thee, 
And  Thy  sweet  peace  their  comfort  be. 

4  O  Triune  God,  to  Thee  we  bow  ! 

Seal  Thou  in  heaven  the  marriage  vow; 
Thy  grace  sustain  Thy  ser\-ants  here. 
And  may  they  praise  Thee  ever  there.

The  skillful  hand  and  stronger  arm. 
Still  plied  with  zeal  and  ardor  warm^ 
With  watchful  eye  and  frugal  care, 
Full  soon  a  competence  prepare. 

This  chaste  estate  of  Paradise, 
Is  left  to  man  below  the  skies  ; 
Prolific  harbinger  of  good. 
Perennial  fount  of  brotherhood  : 


3  Where  by  the  Word  the  Ix)rd  is  Guest,     6  From  this  all  stations  emanate, 

And  all  through  faith  and  prayer  is  blest,  The  Home,  the  Church,  and  Powers  of  State; 

There  with  (Vod's  grace  will  all  l)e  filled,  Blest  inirsery  of  virtuous  worth, 

And  God  Himself  that  house  will  build.  Be  thou  held  sacred  still  on  earth  !

Thou  didst  endure  death's  sharpest  pain. 

And  open  heaven  for  us  again. 

As  equal  therx.'  at  God's  right  hand 

Thou  sittest  in  supreme  command. 

Thou,  our  exalted  risen  Head, 

Wilt  be  the  Judge  of  quick  and  dead. 

Now  help  us.  Lord,  Thy  ser^'ants  here. 
Whom  Thou  hast  saved  with  blood  so  dear. 
Let  us  have  portion  with  the  blest 
In  Thine  eternal,  glorious  rest. 
Lord  Jesus,  bless  Thine  heritage. 
And  shield  Thy  fold  from  age  to  age ; 
Protect  and  nurse  Thine  own  with  care. 
Then  let  them  endless  glory  share. 

Daily,  our  God,  we'll  sing  Thy  praise. 

And  bless  Thy  Name  throughout  our  days. 

Keep  us,  O  Lord,  throughout  this  day 

P'rom  sin  and  every  evil  way  ; 

Have  mercy  u])on  us,  O  Lord ; 

In  all  our  need  Thy  grace  afTord ; 

Thy  mercy  unto  us  e'er  show. 

It  is  our  only  hope  below. 

Dear  Lord !  our  hopes  all  rest  in  Thee, 

Oh  !  let  us  ne'er  confounded  be.     Amen.

Thy  praise  forever  telling, 
In  earth  and  sky  all  living  things 

Beneath  Th}-  shadow  dwelling, 
Adore  the  wisclom  which  could  span, 
And  power  which  formed  Creation's  plan: 

To  God  all  praise  and  glory ! 

3  What  God's  almighty  power  hath  made, 

His  gracious  mercy  keepeth  ; 
By  morning  glow  or  evening  shade, 

His  watchful  eye  ne'er  sleepeth ; 
Within  the  kingdom  of  His  might, 
Lo,  all  is  just  and  all  is  right ; 

To  God  all  praise  and  glory ! 

4  I  cried  to  God  in  my  distress, 

His  mercy  heard  my  calling ; 
5Iy  Savior  saw  my  helplessness. 
And  kept  my  feet  from  falling; 


'  i  I  '  l-^l 

For  this.  Lord,  praise  and  thanks  to  Thee; 
Praise  God,  I  say,  praise  God  with  me ! 
To  God  all  praise  and  glory ! 

5  When  every  earthly  hope  has  flown 

From  sorrow's  sons  and  daughters. 
Our  Father,  from  His  heavenly  throne. 

Beholds  the  troubled  waters ; 
And  at  His  Word  the  stonn  is  stayed. 
Which  made  His  children's  hearts  afraid  ; 

To  God  all  praise  and  glory  ! 

6  Thus  all  my  pilgrim  way  along, 

I  sing  aloud  Thy  praises, 
That  men  may  hear  the  gratef-jl  song 

My  voice  unwearied  raises  ; 
Be  joyous  in  the  Lord,  my  heart! 
Both  soul  and  bfxly,  bear  your  part :

2  High  as  the  heavens  are  raised 

Above  the  ground  we  tread, 
So  far  the  riches  of  His  grace 
Our  highest  thoughts  exceed. 

3  His  grace  subdues  our  sins, 

And  His  forgiving  love 
Far  as  the  east  is  from  the  west 
Doth  all  our  guilt  remove. 

4  ^he  pity  of  the  Lord 

To  those  who  fear  His  Name, 


Is  such  as  tender  parents  feel ; 
He  knows  our  feeble  frame. 

5  Our  days  are  as  the  grass. 

Or  like  the  morning  flower; 
If  one  sharp  blast  sweep  o'er  the  field, 
It  withers  in  an  hour. 

6  But  Thy  compassions.  Lord, 

To  endless  years  endure  ; 
And  children's  children  ever  find 
Thy  words  of  promise  sure.

Come,  in  sorrow  and  contrition, 
Wounded,  impotent  and  blind  ; 

Here  the  guilty  free  remission. 

Here  the  troul^led  peace  may  find  ; 

Health  this  fountain  will  restore ; 

He  that  drinks  shall  thirst  no  more. 


I 

o  He  that  drinks  shall  live  forever; 

'Tis  a  soul-renewing  flood  ; 

God  is  faithful ;  God  will  never 

Break  the  covenant  of  His  blood, 
Signed  when  our  Redeemer  died. 
Sealed  when  He  was  glorified.

2  The  Spirit  makes  life's  pathway  plain,  4  Lord,  fill  with  grace  our  wayward  heart. 
Imparts  the  grace  that  will  sustain  ;  Nor  let  Thy  Spirit  from  us  part ; 

And  grace  its  work  in  those  will  show,         O  save  us  from  still  hidden  sin, 
Who  truly  to  the  Spirit  sow.  And  form  our  nature  pure  within  : 

3  They  that  are  Christ's  have  crucified  5  That  watchful,  prayerful,  sober,  strong, 
Their  flesh  with  all  its  lusts  and  pride.  We  grow  the  more  as  strifes  prolong. 
And  seek  in  truth  what  they  profess,  And  of  the  S]Mrit  reap  at  last 

And  walk  the  paths  of  holiness.  Eternal  life,  when  .strife  is  pa.st.

Thy  grace  adore,  Thy  power  confess. 

From  sin  and  strife  to  flee : 
One  is  our  calling,  one  our  name,

2  From  those  celestial  springs 

Such  streams  of  comfort  flow, 
As  no  increase  of  riches  brings, 
Nor  honors  can  bestow\ 

3  All  in  their  stations  move, 

And  each  performs  his  part, 
In  all  the  cares  of  life  and  love. 
With  sympathizing  heart. 


4  Formed  for  the  purest  joys, 

By  one  desire  possessed, 
One  aim  the  zeal  of  all  employs. 
To  make  each  other  blest. 

5  No  bliss  can  equal  theirs, 

Where  such  affections  meet ; 
While  praise  devout,  and  mingled  pray'rs, 
Make  their  communion  sweet 


6  'Tis  the  same  pleasure  fills 
The  breast  in  worlds  above. 
Where  joy  like  morning  dew  distill? 
And  all  the  air  is  love.

2  But  first  rouse  thee,  and  awake 
From  secure  indiff'rence ; 
Else  will  follow  in  its  wake 
Woe  without  deliv'rance. 
Take  thou  heed ! 
Utter  need, 
Death  in  sins  might  find  thee, 
Ere  thou  look  behind  thee. 

o  Wake,  arouse  !  else  can  the  Lord 
Not  enlighten,  ground  thee  ; 
Nor  thou  see  the  quick'ning  Word 
Shine  in  splendor  round  thee. 
God  demands 
Eyes  and  hands 
Open  for  the  offers. 
He  so  richly  proffers. 


With  thy  watching  mingle  prayer ; 

Grace  but  rids  from  slumber. 
GckI  rids  thee  from  slothful  care 
And  the  weights  that  cumljer  ; 
Else  will  still 
Mind  and  will 
Lukewarm  praises  tender, 
And  cold  ser\'ice  render. 


5  God  will  have  it  that  we  ask, 

And  it  shall  be  given  ; 
Who  pray  alway,  alway  bask 
In  the  grace  of  heaven. 

Ere  they  plead 

Will  He  heed. 
Strengthen,  keep,  defend  them, 
And  deliv'rance  send  them. 

6  Cheer  thee  then,  my  soul !  all  must 

Work  for  good,  and  bless  us. 
If  we  but  in  prayerful  trust 
To  God's  Son  address  us ; 

And  He  will 

Richly  fill. 
And  His  Spirit  send  us, 
Wlio  to  Him  commend  us. 


7  Let  us  watch  then,  pray,  with  heed, 
God  will  prove  our  Hearer ; 
For  the  hour  of  utmost  need 
Constantly  draws  nearer. 
Saints  will  cheer, 
Sinners  fear. 
When  the  trumpet  calleth, 
Earth  in  ruins  falleth.

2  'Twas  grace  that  quickened  me  when  dead, 
And  grace  my  soul  to  Jesus  led ; 
Grace  brings  me  pardon  for  my  sin— 
'Tis  grace  subdues  my  lusts  within. 

3  'Tis  grace  that  sweetens  ev'ry  cross, 
'Tis  grace  supports  in  ev'ry  loss; 

In  Jesus'  grace  my  soul  is  strong — 
Grace  is  my  hope  and  Christ  my  song.

2  Ever  true  this  word  remains : 

He  who  Christ  to  own  refnses, 
While  he  earthly  comfort  .uains, 

Everlasting  comfort  loses ; 
For  the  Savior  will  not  own 
Him  before  the  Father's  throne. 

3  To  the  banner  of  the  cross 

I  fidelity  have  plighted, 
It  would  be  mv  endless  loss 


If  this  solemn  vow  were  slighted  ; 
Therefore  Jesus,  none  but  He, 
Shall  my  constant  watchword  be. 

4  Ivet  me,  till  my  latest  breath, 

Christ  confess  with  constant  meekness; 
Let  me  faithful  be  till  death. 

Strong  in  Him  'mid  all  my  weakness; 
lyct  me  live  in  Him,  and  die 
Heir  of  mansions  in  the  sky.

2  Nay  not  in  me,  .self-righteous  were  it, 
On  God's  grace  rests  my  holiness; 
He  looks  on  Chri.st's  atoning  merit. 

And  counts  this  as  my  righteousness 
This  I  believe,  and  hence  my  claim, 
That  I  am  holv  in  His  Name. 


4  I  will  devote  my  ev'ry  member 

To  serve  in  righteou.sness  God's  will, 
Then  when  I  falter,  e'er  remember 

That  I  may  trust  God's  mercy  .still; 
And  pray  that  God  would  guide  through  strife, 
That  I  mav  lead  a  holv  life. 


3  In  Christ,  by  faith  then,  I  am  holy. 
In  self  though  'tis  not  yet  the  case; 
But  I  will  likewise  now  so  wholly 

vSeek  e'er  in  life  to  walk  by  grace, 
That  .soul  and  l)ody  may  remain 
All  blameless  till  Christ  comes  again. 


5  Thus  will  I  walk,  O  God,  before  Thee, 
That  my  light  too  may  shine  alway 
And  that  I  by  my  life  adore  Thee, 

Till  I  at  length  on  that  great  day 
In  life  and  self  shall  holy  be, 
And  wholly  perfect.  Lord,  with  Thee.

*2  Heavenward  stretch,  my  soul,  thy  wings. 
Thou  canst  claim  a  heavenly  nature ; 
Cleave  not  to  these  earthly  things.

Back  to  Him  its  Source,  aspires.

Oft  as  in  His  Word  I  hear  Him  ; 
Pointing  to  the  rest  on  high. 

Where  I  shall  be  ever  near  Him.

Oft  to  heaven  my  soul  is  caught.

Feeding  on  the  Bread  of  Heaven  ; 
Such  is  e'en  on  earth  our  fare, 
When  Thy  marriage  feast  we  share.

Death  at  last  will  surely  lead  me ; 

All  my  trials  overcome. 

Christ  with  life  and  joy  will  feed  me 
Who  Himself  hath  gone  before, 
That  we  too  iTiight  heavenward  soar.

While  a  pilgrim  here  I  wander, 

Pa.ssing  earth's  allurements  by 

For  the  love  of  what  is  yonder; 
Heavenward  all  my  being  tends, 
Till  in  heaven  my  journey  ends.

Instead  of  cure. 

God's  heart  is  pure. 
Of  doubt  will  I  divest  me. 
And  on  His  goodness  re.st  me. 


Of  this  shall  none  deprive  me  ; 
And  though  on  pathway  rough  and  lone,

2  Though  awhile  it  be  delayed, 
He  denieth  not  His  aid ; 
Though  it  come  not  oft  with  speed, 
It  will  surely  come  in  need. 

3  As  a  father  not  too  soon 
Grants  his  child  the  longed-for  boon, 
So  our  God  gives  when  He  will ;' 
Wait  His  pleasure  and  be  still. 

4  I  can  rest  in  thoughts  of  Him, 
When  all  courage  else  grows  dim, 
For  I  know  my  soul  shall  prove 
His  is  more  than  father's  love.

6  Man  may  hate  me  causelessly, 
Man  may  plot  to  ruin  me. 
Foes  my  heart  may  pierce  and  rend : 
God  in  heaven  is  still  my  Friend. 

7  Earth  may  all  her  gifts  deny. 
Safe  my  treasure  is  on  high  ; 
And  if  heaven  at  last  be  mine. 
All  things  else  I  can  resign. 

8  I  renounce  thee  willingly, 
W^orld,  I  hate  what  pleases  thee. 
Baneful  every  gift  of  thine. 
Only  be  my  God  still  mine. 

9  Ah  Ix>rd,  if  but  Thee  I  have, 
Nought  ui  other  good  I  crave.

2  Ah  whither  now  for  comfort  turn?

Found  ever  counsel,  aid,  and  rest;

So  dark  and  hopeless  is  no  grief 

But  Thy  sweet  Name  can  bring  relief. 

So  keen  no  sorrow's  rankling  dart 

lUit  Thy  sweet  Name  can  heal  my  heart

No  words,  no  song  that  I  can  frame

Speak  half  the  sweetness  of  Thy  Name ; 
They  only  all  its  power  shall  prove 
Whose  hearts  have  learnt  Thy  faith  and  love. 

5  Jesus,  my  Bridegroom  and  my  Crown, 

If  Thou  but  smile,  the  world  may  frown ; 
In  Thee  lie  depths  of  joy  untold, 
r^'ar  richer  than  her  richest  gold; 
Whene'er  I  do  but  tliink  of  Thee, 
Thy  dews  drop  down  and  solace  me. 

6  Let  me  this  flesh  and  blood  control, 
From  sin  and  shame  preserve  my  soul, 
And  keep  me  steadfast  in  the  faith, 
Then  I  am  Thine  in  life  and  death; 
Jesus,  Consoler,  bend  to  me  ! 

Ah,  would  I  were  e'en  now  with  Thee!

2  What  can  the.se  anxious  cares  avail  thee, 

These  never-ceasing  moans  and  sighs? 
What  can  it  help,  if  thou  bewail  thee 

O'er  each  dark  moment  as  it  flies? 
Our  cross  and  trials  do  but  })ress 
The  heavier  for  our  bitternes.s. 

3  Only  be  .still  and  wait  His  leisure 

In  cheerful  hope,  with  heart  content 
To  take  whate'er  Thy  leather's  ])ieasure 

And  all-deserving  love  hath  sent ; 
Nor  (l()ul)t  our  iinnost  wants  are  known 
To  Him  who  chose  us  for  His  own. 

4  He  knows  the  time  for  joy,  and  truly 

Will  .send  it  when  He  .sees  it  meet, 
When  He  has  tried  and  purged  thee  duly 

.And  finds  tlue  free  from  all  deceit, 
He  (M»mes  to  thee  all  iniaware, 
And  makes  thee  own  His  loving  care. 


Nor  think,  amid  the  heat  of  trial, 
That  God  hath  cast  thee  ofT  unheard ; 

That  he  whose  hopes  meet  no  denial 
Mu.st  surely  l;e  of  (^lod  ])referred  ; 

Time  passes  and  much  change  doth  bring, 

And  sets  a  bound  to  everything. 

6  -Ml  are  alike  before  the  Highest ; 
'Tis  easy  to  our  God,  we  know, 

To  raise  thee  up.  though  low  thou  lie.st. 
To  make  the  rich  man  ])oor  and  low  : 
True  wonders  .still  by  Him  are  wrought,. 
Who  .setteth  up  and  brings  to  nought. 

7  vSing,  pray,  ami  keep  His  ways  unswerving. 
So  do  thine  own  part  faithfully, 

,     .And  trust  His  Word,  though  undeserving. 
Thou  yet  shalt  find  it  true  for  thee  ; 
(lod  never  yet  forsook  in  need 
The  soul  that  trusted  Him  indeed.

Restless  thoughts,  that  fret  and  crave,

He  who  marie  it  careth  well.

Loves  Him  most  when  sad  and  lonely ; 
Grief  that  wrings  and  breaks  the  heart 


Comes  to  those  who  hate  Him  only; 
They  who  love  Him  still  possess 
Comfort  in  their  worst  distress. 

.\nd  my  soul  complaineth  not, 
For  no  pain  or  fears  dismay  it ; 

Still  it  clings  to  (Vod  in  faith, 

Trusts  Him,  though  He  seem  to  slay  it. 

'Tis  when  flesh  and  blotxl  re])ine. 

Sun  of  joy,  Thou  canst  not  shine. 

Thus  my  soul  is  still  and  waits. 
Every  nmnnuring  word  it  hushes, 

Conqu'ring  thus  the  pain  or  wrong 
That  the  restless  spirit  crushes  ;

2  The  world  may  call  itself  my  foe, 

Or  let  the  world  allure, 
I  care  not  for  the  world,  I  go 

To  this  tried  Friend  and  sure. 
And  when  life's  fiercest  storms  are  sent, 

Upon  life's  wildest  sea, 
My  little  bark  is  confident, 

Because  it  holds  by  Thee, 

3  When  the  law  threatens  endless  death, 

I'pon  the  dreadful  hill, 
Straightway  from  its  consuming  breath 

My  soul  mounts  higher  still. 
It  hastes  to  Jesus,  wounded,  slain, 

And  finds  in  Him  its  home. 
Whence  it  shall  not  go  forth  again, 

And  where  no  death  can  come. 


111^      1    r 

I  do  not  fear  the  wilderness. 

Where  Thou  hast  been  before  ; 
Nay  !  rather  would  I  daily  press 

Toward  Thee,  and  near  Thee  more  ; 
Thou  art  my  Strength,  on  Thee  I  lean, 

My  heart  Thou  niakest  sing. 
And  to  Thy  pastures  rich  and  green 

Thy  chosen  flock  wilt  bring. 

And  if  the  gate  that  opens  there 

Be  closed  to  other  men. 
It  is  not  closed  to  those  who  share 

The  heart  of  Jesus  then. 
That  is  not  losing  much  of  life. 

Which  is  not  losing  Thee, 
Who  art  as  present  in  the  .strife, 

As  in  the  victory !

My  Helper  Thou  hast  been  ;      •  On  earth  is  heaven  begun  ; 

Then  should  I,  for  each  coming  hour,  Then  love  leads  on  from  day  to  day 

Trust  childlike  that  Thy  love  and  power       In  duty's  path  and  helps  me  say. 
Support  will  yield  again.  "Thy  will,  not  mine,  be  done." 

(J  Thus  would  I  ever  trust  in  Thee, 
My  Comforter  and  Guide : 
For  e'en  though  fears  and  sins  prevail, 
Thy  promises  can  never  fail.

And  thy  sinful  inclinations

Thou  shalt  conquer,

And  thou  tread'st  the  thorny  road, 
His  right  hand  shall  still  defend  thee  ;

Here  strength  I  lind  for  death's  endurance, 


And  hope  for  all  I  need  beside  : 
For  Jesus'  sake,  when  flesh  shall  fail, 

0  God,  with  me  may  it  be  well  i 

Naught  shall  my  soul  from  Jesus  sever. 
Nor  life,  nor  death;  things  high  nor  low: 

1  take  Him  as  my  Lord  forever, 

My  future  trust,  as  He  is  now  ; 
And  for  His  sake,  when  flesh  shall  fail, 
O  God,  with  me  may  it  be  well.

Ere  yet  this  pres-ent  hour  is      fled.     This    liv  -  ing  bod  -  y     may  be  dead. 


!i  I  know, — God  hath  this  knowledge  given —    4  Lord,  grant  that,  by  contrition  riven, 


To  me  death  is  not  death,  indeed  ; 
To  me  death  is  a  gate  to  heaven, 

A  bound  and  end  of  all  my  need, 
A  gentle  evening,  peaceful,  blest, 

\Vhen  I  have  ])assed  from  toil  to  rest. 

Lord,  let  my  .soul,  with  unfeigned  gladness, 
In  living  faith  Thy  call  await 

To  leave  its  cave  ot  sin  and  sadness. 
And  this  vain  world  for  heaven's  estate; 

O  keep  my  heart  ]jrepared  alvvay, 

To  lay  aside  this  mortal  clay. 


My  heart  I  daily  offer  Thee, 
And  let  me  close  this  life  for  heaven, 

Sealed  by  Thy  death  and  agony  : 
O  let  Thy  death,  with  pa-ssion  rife. 
My  comfort  be,  my  balm  and  life. 

)  Lord,  daily  let  me  die  then,  ever  ; 

And  at  the  last  stand  Thou  by  me. 
That  death  may  not  from  Thee  me  sever, 

But  bring  me  nearer  unto  Thee  ! 
Then  welcome  my  la.st  hour  shall  be, 
When,  where,  and  how  it  plea.seth  Thee;

2  A  span  is  all  that  we  can  boast ; 
A  fleeting  hour  of  time ; 
Man  is  but  vanity  and  dust. 
In  all  his  flower  and  prime. 

o  Vain  race  of  mortals,  see  them  move 
Like  shadows  o'er  the  plain  : 
They  rage  and  strive,  desire  and  love, 
But  all  the  noise  is  vain. 

4  Some  walk  in  honor's  gaudy  show ; 
Some  dig  for  golden  ore  ; 


They  toil  for  whom  they  do  not  know, 
And  straight  are  seen  no  more. 

5  What  should  I  wish  or  wait  for  then, 

From  creatures,  earth,  and  dust? 
They  make  our  expectations  vain, 
And  disappoint  our  trust. 

6  Now  I  resign  my  earthly  hope, 

My  fond  desires  recall ; 
I  give  my  mortal  int'rest  up, 
And  make  my  God  my  all.

2  I  hence  go  with  rejoicing 

To  Christ,  my  Brother's  side, 
That  I  may  soon  be  with  Him, 
And  e'er  with  Him  abide. 

3  I  have  o'ercome  life's  crosses, 

Endured  the  chast'ning  rod; 
And  through  His  five  wounds  holy 
I  am  at  peace  with  God. 

4  Wlien  all  my  powers  are  breaking, 

My  breath  comes  heavily, 
And  not  a  word  can  utter, 
O  hear  my  sighs  to  Thee ! 

o  Wlien  mind  and  thought  with  faintness 
But  waver  yet  about. 

From  Melchior  Vulpiiis  G.  B.,  Jena, 


E'en  as  a  light  that  flickers 
Just  as  the  flame  goes  out ; 

G  Then  let  me  softly,  gently, 
Lord,  fall  asleep  in  Thee, 
When  by  Thy  will  and  counsel 
My  last  hour  comes  to  me ; 

7  And  let  me  cleave  unto  Thee 

With  ivy's  searching  hold. 

And  ever  live.  Lord,  with  Thee 

In  bliss  of  heaven  untold. 

8  Amen!  this  wilt  Thou,  ^avior. 

Grant  graciously  to  me  ; 
Endow  me  with  Thy  Spirit 
That  blest  I  pass  to  Thee !

2  I  pray,  by  all  Thy  bitter  woe. 

Thou  wouldst  Thy  grace  on  me  bestow, 
When  heavily  I  draw  my  breath, 
In  the  last  agonies  of  death. 

Z  And  when  my  spirit  leaves  its  bands, 
Then  take  it,  Lord,  into  Thy  hands; 
^ly  body,  may  it  rest  in  clay. 
Till  the  approach  of  the  last  day. 

4  And  at  the  resurrection  great. 
Be  Thou  my  Joy  and  Advocate  ! 
Remember  not  my  sins  so  rife. 
But  pardon  grant  in  grace,  and  life. 

o  As  Thou  hast  promised  unto  me, 

Lord,  in  Thy  Word— and  I  trust  Thee- 
"  Who  keeps  my  Word,  I  truly  say, 
And  'bides  by  faith  in  me  alway. 


6  "  vShall  not  be  judged!  shall  live  by  faith, 
And  nevermore  shall  taste  of  death ! 
And  though  his  body  here  shall  die, 
Destruction  still  shall  not  come  nigh. 

7  "  But  I  will  with  my  might}-  hands 
Deliver  him  from  death's  cold  bands, 
And  take  him  to  my  realm  to  me. 
Where  he  shall  e'er  my  glory  see, 

8  "And  ever  live  in  joys  with  me." 
To  which  help  us,  yea  !  graciously. 
O  Lord  !  forgive  our  sins  so  great. 
And  help  that  we  in  patience  wait, 

9  Till  our  last  hour  oh  earth  draws  nigh, 
And  that  our  faith  with  watchful  eye 
May  trust  Thy  Word  e'er  steadfastly, 
Till  blessedly  we  sleep  in  Thee.

2  My  sins,  dear  Ix)r(l,  disturb  me  sore, 

My  conscience  cannot  slumber; 
But  I  will  cleave  to  Thee  the  more, 

Thouj^h  they  the  sands  outnumber; 
I  will  remember  Thou  didst  die. 
Will  think  on  Thy  most  bitter  cry  ; 

Thy  sufferinj^s  shall  uphold  me.

Hence  will  I  comfort  borrow; 
For  Thf)U  wilt  surely  keep  me  Thine

4  Since  Thou  didst  leave  the  grave  again, 
It  cannot  be  my  dwelling  : 

Thou  art  in  heaven,  this  soothes  my  pain^ 

All  fear  of  death  disjjelling; 
For  Thou  wilt  have  me  where  Thou  art. 
And  so  with  joy  can  I  depart, 

To  be  with  Thee  forever. 

5  To  Thee  I  now  stretch  out  mine  ann  \ 
And  gladly  hence  betake  me  ; 

I  sleep  at  peace  from  all  alarms. 

No  human  voice  can  wake  me. 
But  Christ  is  with  me  through  the  strife^ 
.\nd  He  will  bear  me  into  life, 

And  o])en  heaven  before  me.

2  So  on  His  Word  relying, 
I  know,  while  I  am  dying, 

I  soon  shall  see  His  face, 
Through  Christ  whose  death  hath  bought  me ; 
The  Father's  love  He  brought  me. 

And  now  prepares  for  me  a  place. 


3  The  grave  hath  lost  its  terrors, 
Since  for  my  .sins  and  errors, 

My  Savior  did  atone  : 
My  works  can  nought  avail  me, 
But  His  work  cannot  fail  me, 

I  rest  in  faith  on  Him  alone. 


4  And  so  I  hence  am  going 
In  peace,  full  surely  knowing 

That  now  I  shall  have  rest : 
I  feel  death's  icy  finger; 
My  soul  here  canngt  linger, 

Xor  would  I  stay — to  go  is  best. 


5  O  world,  I  yet  would  teach  thee ; 
That  death  will  surely  reach  thee; 

Thou  too  must  follow  me  ; 
Then  ere  God's  grace  forsake  thee. 
Repent !  to  Christ  betake  thee. 

That  Gwl  have  mercy  too  on  thee.

2  Far  off  I  see  my  fatherland, 

Where  through  Thy  grace  I  hope  to  stand; 
But  ere  I  reach  that  Paradise 
A  weary  way  before  me  lies. 

3  My  heart  sinks  at  the  journey's  length, 
My  wasted  flesh  has  little  strengtli ; 
Only  my  soul  still  cries  in  me. 

Lord,  fetch  me  home,  take  me  to  Thee. 

4  O  let  Thy  sufferings  give  me  power 
To  meet  the  last  and  darkest  hour ; 
Thy  cross  the  staff  whereon  I  lean. 

My  couch  the  grave  where  Thou  hast  been. 

5  Since  Thou  hast  died,  the  Pure,  the  Just, 
I  take  my  homeward  way  in  trust ; 


The  gates  of  heav'n.  Lord,  open  wide, 
When  here  I  may  no  more  abide. 

6  And  when  the  last  great  day  is  come, 
And  Thou,  our  Judge,  shalt  speak  the  doom, 
Let  me  with  joy  behold  the  light. 
And  set  me  then  upon  Thy  right 

7  Renew  this  wasted  flesh  of  mine, 
That  like  the  sun  it  there  may  shine 
Among  the  angels  pure  and  bright, 
Yea,  like  Thyself,  in  glorious  light. 

8  Then  I  shall  have  my  heart's  desire. 
When,  singing  with  the  angels'  choir, 
Among  the  ransomed  of  Thy  grace. 
Forever  I  behold  Thv  face.

2  O  Jesus  Christ,  Thou  Lamb  of  (rod, 
Once  slain  to  take  away  our  load, 
Now  let  Thy  cross,   Thine  agony, 
Avail  to  save  and  solace  me, 

Thy  death  to  open  heav'n,  and  there 
Rid  me  the  joy  of  angels  share. 

3  O  Holy  Spirit,  at  the  end, 

Sweet  Comforter,   be  Thou  my  Friend  ; 
WIrii  death  and  hell  assail  me  sore, 
Leave  me,  O  leave  me  nevennore. 
Rut  bear  me  safely  through  the  strife, 
.•\s  Thou  hast  promised,  into  life.

2  Swift  to  its  close  ebbs  out  life's  little  day; 
Earth's  joys  grow  dim,  its  glories  pass  away ; 
Change  and  decay  in  all  around  I  see  : 

O  Thou  who  changest  not,  abide  witli  me! 

3  Not  a  brief  glance  I  beg,  a  passing  word. 
But  as  Thou  dwell'si  with  Thy  disciples.  Lord, 
Familiar,  condescending,  patient,  free  : 
Come,  not  to  sojourn,  but  abide  with  me! 

4  Come  not  in  terrors  as  the  Kmg  of  kings, 
But  kind  and  good,  with  healing  on  Thy  wings: 
Tears  for  all  woes,  a  heart  for  every  plea; 
O  Friend  of  sinners,  thus  abide  with  me ! 

5  Thou  on  my  head  in  early  youth  didst 

smile, 
And,  though  rebellious  and  perverse  meanwhile, 


Thou  hast  not  left  me,  oft  as  I  left  Thee: 
On  to  the  close,  O  Lord,  abide  with  me! 

6  I  need  Thy  presence  every  passing  hour: 
What  but  Thy  grace  can  foil  the  tempter's  power  ? 
Who  like  Thyself  my  guide  and  stay  can  be  I 
Through  cloud  and  sunshine,  0  abide  with  me! 

7  I  fear  no  foe,  with  Thee  at  hand  to  bless- 
Ills  have  ro  weight,  and  tears  no  bitterness. 
Where  is  death  s  sting  ?  where,  grave,  thy  victory? 
I  triumph  still,  if  Thou  abide  with  met 

8  Hold  Thou  Thy  Cross  before  my  closing  eyes. 
Shine  through  the  gloom,  and  point  me  to  the  skies» 
Heaven's  morning  breaks,  and  earth's 

vain  shadows  flee ; 
In  life,  in  death,  O  Lord  !  abide  with  me!

His  Church  to  quicken  and  to  save. 


3  Cease,  cease,  ye  vain  desponding  fears!  5  Faith  sees  the  bright,  eternal  doors 

When  Christ,ourLord,frcm  darkness  sprung,  Unfold  to  make  His  children  way  ; 

Deatli,  the  last  foe,  was  captive  led.  They  shall  be  clothed  with  endless  life, 

And  heav'n  with  praise  and  wonder  rung.  And  shine  in  everlasting  day. 

6  The  trump  shall  sound,  the  dust  awake  ; 

And  from  the  tomb  the  slumb'rers  spring; 
Through  heav'n  the  joyful  myriads  rise, 
And  hail  their  Savior  and  their  King.

From  Him,  my  life,  my  all  receive;

2  Jesus,  my  Redeemer,  lives, 

And  His  life  I  soon  shall  see ; 
Bright  the  hope  the  promise  gives, 

Where  He  is  I  too  shall  be. 
Shall  I  fear  then  ?  Can  the  Head 
Rise  and  leave  the  members  dead? 

3  Close  to  Him  my  soul  is  bound  I 

In  the  bonds  of  hope  enclasped  ; 
Faith's  strong  hand  this  soul  hath  found, 

And  the  Rock  hath  firmly  grasped ; 
Death  shall  ne'er  my  soul  remove 
I-roni  her  refuge  in  Thy  love. 

4  I  shall  see  Him  with  these  eves, 

Him  whom  I  shall  surely  know; 
Not  another  shall  I  rise ; 

With  His  love  this  heart  shall  glow; 
Only  there  shall  disappear 
Weakness  in  and  round  me  here. 

o  Ye  who  suffer,  sigh,  and  moan. 

Fresh  and  glorious  thert  shall  reign  ; 
Earthly  here  the  seed  is  sown, 

Louise  Henrietta.  F.lei  tress  (,f  Hran 


Heavenly  it  shall  rise  again  ; 
Natural  here  the  death  we  die, 
Spiritual  our  life  on  high. 

6  Bod}',  be  thou  of  good  cheer, 

In  thy  Savior's  care  rejoice  ; 
Give  not  place  to  gloom  and  fear. 

Dead,  thou  yet  shalt  know  His  voice, 
When  the  final  trump  is  heard, 
And  the  deaf,  cold  grave  is  stirred. 

7  Laugh  to  scorn  both  death  and  hell. 

Laugh  to  scorn  the  gloomy  grave ; 
Caught  into  the  air  to  dwell 

With  the  Lord  who  came  to  save, 
We  shall  trample  on  our  foes, 
Mortal  weakness,  fear  and  woes. 

8  Only  see  ye  that  your  heart 

Rise  betimes  from  earthly  lust ; 
Would  ye  there  with  Him  have  part. 

Here  oliey  your  Lord  and  trust ; 
V'xyi  your  heart  beyond  the  skies, 
Whitlier  ye  yourselves  would  rise.

2  A  trumpet  loud  will  then  resound. 

And  the  whole  earth  be  shaken  ; 
Then  all  who  in  their  graves  are  found 

Will  from  their  sleep  awaken. 
But  all  that  live  will  in  that  hour. 
By  the  Almighty's  boundless  power, 

Be  changed  at  His  connnanding. 

3  A  lxx)k  is  o|>ened  then  to  all —  f 

A  record  truly  telling 
What  each  has  done,  both  great  and  small, 

When  he  on  earth  was  dwelling. 
And  ev'ry  heart  be  clearly  seen. 
And  all  be  known  as  they  liave  l)een. 

In  thouglits  and  words  and  actions. 

4  Then  woe  to  those  who  scorned  the  Lord,    ' 

And  sought  but  carnal  pleasures, 
Who  here  <iesi)ise<l  His  ])recious  Word, 

And  loved  their  earthly  treasures: 
With  shame  and  trembling  will  they  stand, 
An«l  at  the  Judge's  stern  command 

Must  leave  the  Lonl  forever. 


5  O  may  my  name,  dear  Lord,  be  found. 
Free  from  all  condemnation, 

ForThydeath'ssake, Thy  pains  and  wounds. 
In  Tiiy  book  of  salvation. 

I  will  not  doubt — I  trust  in  Thee  ; 

From  vSatan  Thou  hast  made  me  free. 
And  from  all  condenniation. 

0  Therefore  my  Intercessor  l)e, 
And  for  Tliy  death  and  merit 
Declare  my  name  from  judgment  free, 

With  all  who  life  inherit ; 
That  with  my  brethren  I  may  stand 
With  Thee  in  heaven,  our  fatherland, 
Which  Thou  for  us  hast  purchased. 

Lord  Jesus  Chri.st.  do  not  delay, 

O  hasten  our  salvation  ! 
We  often  tremble  on  our  way. 

In  fear  and  tribulation. 
Then  hear  us  when  we  cry  to  Thee ; 
Come,  mighty  Judge,  come,  make  us  free 

From  ev'ry  evil.     Amen  !

Through  earth's  sepulchres  it  ringeth, 
All  before  the  throne  it  bringeth.

All  creation  is  awaking. 
To  its  Judge  an  answer  making.

Wherein  all  hath  been  recorded ; 
Thence  'hall  judgment  be  awarded.

And  eacli  hidden  deed  arraigneth, 
Nothing  unavenged  remaineth.

Who  for  me  bj  interceding, 
When  the  just  are  mercy  needing? 

s  King  of  Majesty  tremendous. 
Who  dost  free  salvation  send  us, 
I'ount  of  pity,  then  befriend  us ;

Caused  Thy  wondrous  incarnation  ; 
I^ave  me  not  to  reprobation  ! 


12  Guilty,  now  I  pour  my  moaning. 
All  my  shame  with  anguish  owning ! 
Spare,  O  God,  Thy  suppliant  groaning  I 

13  Thou  the  woman  gav'st  remission, 
Heardst  the  dying  thief's  petition  : 
Hopeless  else  were  my  condition. 

14  Worthless  are  my  prayers  and  sighing,. 
Yet.  good  Lord,  in  grace  complying, 
Rescue  me  from  fires  undying! 

15  With  Thy  favored  sheep,  0  place  me ! 
Nor  ami(i  the  the  goats  abase  me  : 
But  to  Thy  right  hand  upraise  me. 

16  While  the  wicked  are  confounded. 
Doomed  to  flames  of  woe  unbounded,. 
Call  me,  with  Thy  saints  surrounded. 

17  Bows  my  heart  in  meek  submission^ 
Strewn  with  ashes  of  contrition  ; 
Succor  Thou  my  lost  condition  ! 

18  Day  of  sorrow.  Day  of  weeping. 
When  in  dust  no  longer  slee])ing, 
Man  awakes  in  Thy  dread  keeping !

12  Eternity  !  O  what  a  ])an}^  ! 
Eternity  !   no  serpent's  fang 

Could  send  that  thrill  of  terror; 
When  I  revolve  thy  clanking  chains, 
Thy  dark  abyss  of  deathless  pains. 

My  soul  is  filled  with  horror. 
O  .search  the  universe  around, 
No  e(}ual  terror  can  be  found. 

.'i  Awake,  O  man,  from  sinful  sleep; 

HenccTorth  thy  feet  froTU  wand'ring  keep: 

Seek  Cicnl  by  true  repentance ! 
Awake,  behold  thy  wasting  sand. 


Eternity  is  just  at  hand. 

And  brings  thine  awful  sentence. 
This  is  ])erchance  thy  final  day; 
This  hour  thy  soul  may  haste  away. 

Ivternity  I  terrific  word  ! 

Within  the  heart  a  piercing  sword ! 

Hegiuning  without  ending! 
Eternity!  unmeasured  time! 
I  sink  beneath  the  thought  sublime. 

That  I  to  thee  am  tending : 
Lord  Jesus,  when  it  ]>leaseth  Theo. 
lirant  me  Thv  ble.st  eternitv  !

Zion  hears  the  watchman's  singing,  3 

And  now  with  joyous  heart  upspringing. 

She  stands  and  on  the  call  attends. 
Her  Friend  comes  from  heaven  glorious, 
Strong  in  His  grace,  in  truth  victorious ; 
Her  light  shines  bright,  her  star  ascends. 
"  Now  come,  Thou  Blessed  One, 
Lord  Jesus,  God's  own  Son." 

Halleluiah ! 
We  enter  all 
The  banquet  hall. 
And  feast  there  with  our  heavenly  King. 


"  Glory  unto  Thee  be  given. 

By  men  and  by  the  "host  of  heaven, 

With  harps  and  with  the  cymbals'  tone. 
Twelve  pearls  are  Thy  city's  portals. 
Wherein  we  dwell  with  the  immortals. 
With  angels  high  around  thy  throne. 
No  eye  hath  seen  such  sight, 
No  ear  heard  such  delight, 

Hallelujah  ! 
Thine  hour  is  this, 
O  Heavenly  Bliss, 
Thine  now,  and  shall  be  evermore !  "

2  Lift  Thy  hand  to  aid  us,  Father, 
Let  the  end  of  exile  come, 

And  Thy  scattered  servants  gather 
In  their  longed  for,  ])romised  home.

Shorten  Thou  the  sultrv-  day  ;

What  was  sown  in  tearful  showers ;

Ripens, — there  the  palm  is  ours  ;

2  O  happy  day,  and  yet  far  happier  hour, 

When  wilt  thou  come  at  last? 
When  fearless  to  my  Father's  love  and  power, 

Whose  promise  standeth  fast, 
INIy  soul  I  gladly  render. 

For  surely  will  His  hand 
Lead  her,  with  guidance  tender, 

To  heaven,  her  fatherland. 
S  A  moment's  space,  and  gently,  wondronsly, 

Released  from  earthly  ties. 
The  fiery  car  shall  bear  her  up  to  thee. 

Through  all  these  lower  skies. 
To  yonder  shining  regions. 

Where  down,  to  meet  her,  come 
The  blessed  angel-legions. 

And  bid  her  welcome  home. 
4  O  Zion,  hail !  Bright  city,  now  unfold 

The  gates  of  grace  to  me ! 
How  many  a  time  I  longed  for  thee  of  old. 

Ere  yet  I  was  set  free 
From  yoa  dark  life  of  sadness. 

Yon  world  of  shadowy  nought 
And  God  had  given  the  gladness, 

The  heritage  I  sought, 
o  O  what  the  tribe. or  what  the  glorious  host. 

Comes  sweeping  swiftly  down? 
The  chosen  ones  of  earth  who  wrought  the  most, 

The  Church's  brightest  crown. 


M 


Our  Lord  hath  sent  to  meet  me, 

As  in  the  far  off  years 
Their  words  oft  came  to  greet  me. 

In  yonder  land  of  tears. 
The  Patriarchs'  and  Prophets'  noble  train, 

With  all  Christ's  followers  true. 
Who  bore  the  cross  and  could  the  worst  disdain 

That  tyrants  dared  to  do, 
I  see  them  shine  forever. 

All  glorious  as  the  sun, 
'Mid  light  that  fadeth  never. 

Their  perfect  freedom  won. 

7  And  when  within  that  lovely  Paradise 
At  last  I  safely  dwell. 

From  out  my  soul  what  songs  of  bliss  shall  rise, 

What  joy  my  lips  shall  tell. 
While  holy  saints  are  singing 

Hosannas  o'er  and- o'er, 
Pure  hallelujahs  ringing, 

Around  me  evennore. 

8  In  numerous  choirs  before  the  shining  throne 
With  harp  and  trumpet  raise 

Glad  notes,  till  heav'n's  vast  halls  vibrate  the  tone 

Of  their  melodious  praise. 
And  all  its  host  rejoices, 

And  all  its  blessed  throng 
Unite  their  myriad  voices 

In  one  eternal  song!

2  O,  from  earthly  cares  set  free. 
Let  us  find  our  re.st  in  Thee ! 
May  our  cares  and  conflicts  cea,se 
In  the  calm  of  Sabbath  peace, 
That  Thy  people  here  below 
Something  of  the  bli.ss  may  know, 
Something  of  the  rest  and  love 
In  the  Sabbath  home  above  ! 


3  I/3rd,  Thy  sinful  child  prepare 
For  a  place  and  portion  there ! 
Give  my  soul  the  spotless  dress 
Of  Thy  i^erfect  Righteousness  : 
Then  at  length,  a  welcome  guest, 
I  shall  enter  to  the  feast, 
Rarthh^  cares  and  sorrows  o'er, 
Joys  to  last  for  evennore.

That  in  this  house  have  called  upon  Thy  Name.

Our  balm  in  sorrow,  and  our  stay  in  strife ;

Call  us,  O  Lord,  to  Thine  eternal  peace.

Our  hearts  be  pure  from  evil. 

That  we  may  see  aright 
The  Lord  in  rays  eternal 

Of  resurrection  light : 
And  listening  to  His  accents, 

May  hear,  so  calm  and  plain, 
His  own  "All  hail !  " — and  hearing, 

May  raise  the  victor  strain. 


3  Now  let  the  heavens  be  joyful ! 

Let  earth  her  song  begin  ! 
Let  all  the  world  keep  trium])h, 

And  all  that  is  therein  : 
In  grateful  exultation 

Their  notes  let  all  things  blend, 
For  Christ  the  Lord  hath  risen, 

Our  joy  that  hath  no  end.

AMERICA       (Second  Hymn) 

God  save  our  native  land. 
And  make  her  strong  to  stand 

For  truth  and  right. 
Long  may  her  banner  wave, 
Flag  of  the  free  and  brave  I 
Thou  who  alone  can.st  save, 

Grant  her  Thy  might. 

Ever  from  sea  to  sea 
May  law  and  liberty 

O'er  all  prevail. 
Where'er  the  rivers  flow. 
Where'er  the  breezes  blow, 
L/et  love  and  justice  grow  , 

And  never  fail. 


In  living  unity 

May  all  her  people  be 

Kept  evermore. 
From  here  on  ev'ry  side 
May  freedom's  swelling  tide 
Roll  grandly,  far  and  wide, 

To  ev'ry  shore. 

O  God !  to  Thee  we  raise 
Our  grateful  song  of  praise 

For  this  glad  land. 
Thou  didst  our  fathers  lead, 
Thou  wilt  their  children  heed, 
Supplving  all  their  need 

From  Thy  full  hand.

2  Christians,  hearken  !  None  has  taught  them 

Of  His  love  so  deep  and  dear ; 
Of  the  precious  price  that  bought  them  ; 
Of  the  nail,  the  thorn,  the  spear; 

Ye  who  know  Him, 
Guide  them  from  their  darkness  drear. 

3  Haste,  oh,  haste,  and  spread  the  tidings 

Wide  to  earth's  remotest  strand  ; 
Let  no  brother's  bitter  chidings 


Rise  against  us,  when  we  stand 

In  the  Judgment,

2  Elect  from  every  nation, 

Yet  one  o'er  all  the  earth. 
Her  charter  of  salvation, 

One  Lord,  one  Faith,  one  Birth 
One  holy  Name  she  blesses, 

Partakes  one  holy  food. 
And  to  one  hope  she  presses, 

With  every  grace  endued. 

3  'Mid  toil  and  tribulation, 

And  tumult  of  her  war 
She  waits  the  consummation 
Of  peace  for  evermore ; 


Till  with  the  vision  glorious 
Her  longing  eyes  are  blest, 

And  the  great  Church  victorious 
vShall  be  the  Church  at  rest. 

Yet  she  on  earth  hath  union 

With  God  the  Three  in  One, 
And  mystic  sweet  ccjnnimnion 

With  those  whose  rest  is  won. 
O  hap])y  ones  and  holy  ! 

IvOrd.  give  us  grace  that  we 
Like  them,  the  meek  and  lowly, 

On  high  may  dwell  with  Thee.

4  But  there's  a  power  which  man  can  wield, 
When  mortal  aid  is  vain 
That  eye,  that  arm.  that  love  to  reach. 
That  listening  ear  to  gain. 


'2  There  is  an  arm  that  never  tires. 

When  human  strength  gives  way ; 
There  is  a  love  that  never  fails, 
When  earthly  loves  decav. 


3  That  eye  is  Sxed  on  .seraph  throngs ; 
That  arm  upholds  the  sky  : 
That  ear  is  filled  with  angel  songs ; 
That  love  is  throned  on  high. 


5  That  power  is  prayer,  which  soars  on  high, 
Through  Jesus,  to  the  throne. 
And  moves  the  hand  which  moves  the  world, 
To  bring  salvation  down.

O  God,  be  merciful  to  me.

O  God,  be  merciful  to  me.

Can  for  a  single  sin  atone  ; 

To  Calvary  alone  I  flee  : 
O  God,  be  merciful  to  me. 

5  And  when,  redeemed  from  sin  and  hell, 
With  all  the  ransomed  throng  I  dwell, 
My  raptured  song  shall  ever  be, 

God  has  been  merciful  to  me,

2  Breathe,  O  breathe  Thy  loving  spirit 

Into  every  troubled  breast! 
Let  us  all  in  Thee  inherit, 

Let  us  find  Thy  promised  rest. 
Take  away  the  love  oi  sinning, 

Alpha  and  Omega  be  ; 
End  of  faith,  as  its  beginning, 

Set  our  hearts  at  liberty. 

:j  Come,  .Almighty  to  deliver, 
Let  us  all  Thy  life  receive; 
Graciously  return,  and  never. 
Never  more  Thy  temples  leave  ! 


Thee  we  would  be  always  blessing, 
Serve  Thee  as  Thy  hosts  above, 

Pray  and  praise  Thee  without  ceasing, 
Glory  in  Thy  precious  love. 

4  Finish  then  Thy  new  creation. 
Pure  and  spotless  let  us  be  ; 
Let  us  see  Thy  great  salvation 
Perfectly  restored  in  Thee! 
Changed  from  glory  into  glory, 

Till  in  heaven  we  take  our  place, 
Till  we  cast  our  crowns  before  Thee, 
Lost  in  wonder,  love,  and  prai.se.

Kills  all  the  earth  and  sky  ! 
What  ringing  of  a  thousand  harps 

Hes])eaks  the  triumph  nigh  ! 
0  day,  for  which  creation 

And  all  its  tril>es  were  made!

A  thousand-fold  repaid  ! 

:\  Oh,  then  what  raptured  greetings 
On  Canaan's  ha])]iy  shore! 
What  knitting  severed  friendships  up, 
Where  |xirtings  are  no  more  I 


Then  eyes  with  joy  shall  sparkle 
That  brimmed  with  tears  of  late ; 

Or]ihans  no  longer  fatherless, 
Nor  widows  desolate. 

Bring  near  Thy  great  salvation, 

Thou  Lamb  for  sinners  slain  ; 
Fill  up  the  roll  of  Thine  elect. 

Then  take  Thy  jxiwer  and  reign  ! 
A])])ear,  Desire  of  nations! 

Thine  exiles  long  for  home. 
Show  in  the  heavens  Thy  promised  sign? 

Thou  Prince  and  Savior,  come !

Eplotlc :  IRom.  15  :  4sl3 
For  whatsoever  things  were  written 
aforetime  were  written  for  our  learning, 
that  we  through  patience  and  comfort 
of  the  Scriptures  might  have  hope. 
Now  the  God  of  patience  and  consola- 
tion grant  you  to  be  like-minded,  one 
toward  another  according  to  Christ  Je- 
sus:  that  ye  may  with  one  mind  and  one 
mouth  glorify  God,  even  the  Father  of 
our  Lord  Jesus  Christ.  Wherefore 
receive  ye  one  another,  as  Christ  also 
received  us,  to  the  glory  of  God.  Now 
I  say  that  Jesus  Christ  was  a  minister 
of  the  circumcision  for  the  truth  of  God, 
to  confirm  the  promises  made  unto  the 
fathers :  and  that  the  Gentiles  might 
glorify  God  for  His  mercy:  as  it  is 
written,  For  this  cause  I  will  confess 
to  Thee  among  the  Gentiles,  and  sing 
unto  Thy  name.  And  again,  he  saith. 
Rejoice,  ye  Gentiles,  with  His  peo- 
ple. And  again.  Praise  the  Lord, 
all  ye  Gentiles;  and  laud  Him,  all 
ye  people.  And  again  Esaias  saith, 
There  shall  be  a  root  of  Jesse,  and  He 
that  shall  rise  to  reign  over  the  Gen- 
tiles; in  Him  shall  the  Gentiles  trust. 
Now  the  God  of  hope  fill  you  with  all 
joy  and  peace  in  believing,  that  ye  may 
abound  in  hope,  through  the  power  of 
the   Holy   Ghost. 

(3ra^ual 
Minister:  Rchold,  the  Lord  will 
come  with  a  strong  hand,  and  His  arm 
shall  rule  for  Him:  behold,  His  reward 
is  with  Him,  and  His  work  before  Him. 
Hallelujah!

Gospel:  lultc  2t : 25s36 
And  there  shall  be  signs  in  the  sun, 
and  in  the  moon,  and  in  the  stars;  and 
upon  the  earth  distress  of  nations,  with 
perplexity;  the  sea  and  the  waves  roar- 
ing; men's  hearts  failing  them  for  fear, 
and  for  looking  after  those  things  which 
are  coming  on  the  earth:  for  the  pow- 
ers of  heaven  shall  be  shaken.  And 
then  shall  they  see  the  Son  of  man 
coming  in  a  cloud  with  power  and  great 
glory.  And  when  these  things  begin  to 
come  to  pass,  then  look  up,  and  lift 
up  your  heads ;  for  your  redemption 
draweth  nigh.  And  He  spake  to  them 
a  parable;  Behold  the  fig  tree,  and  all 
the  trees ;  when  they  now  shoot  forth, 
ye  see  and  know  of  your  own  selves 
that  summer  is  now  nigh  at  hand.  So 
likewise  ye,  when  ye  sec  these  things 
come  to  pass,  know  ye  that  the  kingdom 
of  God  is  nigh  at  hand.  Verily  I  say 
unto  you,  This  generation  shall  not 
priss  away,  till  all  be  fulfilled.  Heaven 
and  earth  shall  pass  away :  but  my  words 
shall  not  pass  away.  And  take  heed  to 
yourselves,  lest  at  any  time  your  hearts 
be  overcharged  with  surfeiting,  and 
drunkenness,  and  cares  of  this  life,  and 
so  that  day  come  upon  you  unawares. 
For  as  a  snare  shall  it  come  on  all 
them  that  dwell  on  the  face  of  the 
whole  earth.  Watch  ye  therefore,  and 
pray  always,  that  ye  may  be  accounted 
worthy  to  escape  all  these  things  that 
shall  come  to  pass,  and  to  stand  before 
the  Son  of  man.

Now  when  John  had  heard  in  the

of  his  disciples,  and  said  unto  Him, 
Art  Thou  He  that  should  come,  or  do 
we  look  for  another?  Jesus  answered 
and  said  unto  them.  Go  and  show  John 
again  those  things  which  ye  do  hear  and

and  the  lame  walk,  the  lepers  are

And  this  is  the  record  of  John,  when 
the  Jews  sent  priests  and  Levites  from 
Jerusalem  to  ask  him,  Who  art  thou? 
And  he  confessed,  and  denied  not;  but 
confessed,  I  am  not  the  Christ.  And 
they  asked  him,  What  then?  Art  thou 
Elias?  And  he  saith,  I  am  not.  Art 
thou  that  Prophet?  And  he  answered, 
No.  Then  said  they  unto  him,  Who 
art  thou?  that  we  may  give  an  answer 
to  them  that  sent  us.  What  sayest 
thou  of  thyself?  He  said,  I  am  the 
voice  of  one  crying  in  the  wilderness. 
Make  straight  the  way  of  the  Lord,  as 
said  the  Prophet  Esaias.  And  they 
which  were  sent  were  of  the  Pharisees. 
And  they  asked  him,  and  said  unto  him. 
Why  baptizest  thou  then,  if  thou  be  not 
that  Christ,  nor  Elias,  neither  that  Pro- 
phet? John  answered  them,  saying,  I 
baptize  with  water :  but  there  standeth 
one  among  you,  whom  ye  know  not; 
He  it  is  who  coming  after  me,  is  pre- 
ferred before  me,  whose  shoe's  latchet 
I  am  not  worthy  to  unloose.  These 
things  were  done  in  Bethabara  beyond 
Jordan,  where  John  was  baptizing.

And  it  came  to  pass  in  those  days, 
that  there  went  out  a  decree  from 
Caesar  Augustus,  that  all  the  world 
should  be  taxed.  (And  this  taxing  was 
first  made  when  Cy renins  was  gover- 
nor of  Syria.)  And  all  went  to  be 
taxed,  every  one  into  his  own  city. 
And  Joseph  also  went  up  from  Galilee, 
out  of  the  city  of  Nazareth,  into  Judea, 
unto  the  city  of  David,  which  is  called 
Bethlehem ;  (because  he  was  of  the 
house  and  lineage  of  David;)  to  be 
taxed  with  Mary  his  espoused  wife, 
being  great  with  child.  And  so  it  was, 
that,  while  they  were  there,  the  days 
were  accomplished  that  she  should  be 
delivered.  And  she  brought  forth  her 
firstborn  son,  and  wrapped  Him  in 
swaddling  clothes,  and  laid  Him  in  a 
manger;  because  there  was  no  room 
for  them  in  the  inn.  And  there  were 
in  the  same  country  shepherds  abiding 
in  the  field,  keeping  watch  over  their 
flock  by  night.  And,  lo,  the  angel  of 
the  Lord  came  upon  them,  and  the 
glory  of  the  Lord  shone  round  about 
them:  and  they  were  sore  afraid.  And 
the  angel  said  unto  them,  Fear  not : 
for,  behold,  I  bring  you  good  tidings 
of  great  joy,  which  shall  be  to  all  peo- 
ple. For  unto  you  is  born  this  day  in 
the  city  of  David  a  Savior,  which  is 
Christ  the  Lord.  And  this  shall  be  a 
sign  unto  you:  Ye  shall  find  the  babe 
wrapped  in  swaddling  clothes,  lying  in 
a  manger.  And  suddenly  there  was 
with  the  angel  a  multitude  of  the  hea-

Epistle:  Hcts  6:8sl5j  7:54-59 
And  Stephen,  full  of  faith  and  power, 
did  great  wonders  and  miracles  among 
the  people.  Then  there  arose  certain 
of  the  synagogue,  which  is  called  the 
synagogue  of  the  Libertines,  and  Cyren- 
ians,  and  Alexandrians,  and  of  them 
of  Cilicia  and  of  Asia,  disputing  with 
Stephen,  And  they  were  not  able  to 
resist  the  wisdom  and  spirit  by  which  he 
spake.  Then  they  suborned  men,  which 
said.  We  have  heard  him  speak  blas- 
phemous words  against  Moses,  and 
against  God.  And  they  stirred  up  the 
people,  and  the  elders,  and  the  scribes, 
and  came  upon  him,  and  caught  him,  and 
brought  him  to  the  council,  and  set  up 
false  witnesses,  which  said.  This  man 
ceaseth  not  to  speak  blasphemous  words 
against  this  holy  place,  and  the  law : 
for  we  have  heard  him  say,  that  this 
Jesus  of  Nazareth  shall  destroy  this 
place,  and  shall  change  the  customs 
which  Moses  delivered  us.  And  all  that 
sat  in  the  council,  looking  steadfastly 
on  him,  saw  his  face  as  it  had  been  the 
face  of  an  angel.  When  they  heard 
these  things,  they  were  cut  to  the  heart, 
and  they  gnashed  on  him  with  their 
teeth.  But  he,  being  full  of  the  Holy 
Ghost,  looked  up  steadfastly  into  hea-

Jesus  standing  on  the  right  hand  of 
God,  and  said.  Behold,  I  see  the  hea-

they  cried  out  with  a  loud  voice,  and 
stopped  their  ears,  and  ran  upon  him 
with  one  accord,  and  cast  him  out  of

In  the  beginning  was  the  Word,  and 
the  Word  was  with  God,  and  the  Word 
was  God.  The  same  was  in  the  begin- 
ning with  God.  All  things  were  made 
by  Him:  and  without  Him  was  not  any 
thing  made  that  was  made.  In  Him 
was  life;  and  the  life  was  the  light 
of  men.    And  the  light  shineth  in  dark- 


ness; and  the  darkness  comprehended 
it  not.  There  was  a  man  sent  from 
God,  whose  name  was  John.  The  same 
came  for  a  witness,  to  bear  witness  of 
the  Light,  that  all  men  through  Him 
might  believe.  He  was  not  that  Light, 
but  was  sent  to  bear  witness  of  that 
Light.  That  was  the  true  Light,  which 
lighteth  every  man  that  cometh  into  the

world  was  made  by  Him,  and  the  world 
knew  Him  not.  He  came  unto  His 
own,  and  His  own  received  Him  not. 
But  as  many  as  received  Him,  to  them 
gave  He  power  to  become  the  sons  of 
God,  even  to  them  that  believe  on  His 
name:  which  were  born,  not  of  blood, 
nor  of  the  will  of  the  flesh,  nor  of 
the  will  of  man,  but  of  God.  And  the 
Word  was  made  flesh,  and  dwelt 
among  us,  (and  we  beheld  His  glory, 
the  glory  as  of  the  Only-begotten  of 
the   Father,)    full   of   grace  and   truth.

But  after  that  the  kindness  and  love 
of  God  our  Savior  toward  man  appeared, 
not  by  works  of  righteousness  which 
we  have  done,  but  according  to  His 
mercy  He  saved  us,  by  the  washing 
of  regeneration,  and  renewing  of  the 
Holy  Ghost;  which  He  shed  on  us 
abundantly  through  Jesus  Christ  our 
Savior;  that,  being  justified  by  His 
grace,  we  should  be  made  heirs  accord- 
ing to  the  hope  of  eternal  life.  This

And  when  they  were  departed, 
behold,  the  angel  of  the  Lord  appeareth 
to  Joseph  in  a  dream,  saying,  Arise, 
and  take  the  young  child  and  His 
mother,  and  flee  into  Egypt,  and  be 
thou  there  until  I  bring  thee  word: 
for  Herod  will  seek  the  young  child 
to  destroy  Him.  When  he  arose,  he 
took  the  young  child  and  His  mother 
by  night,  and  departed  into  Egypt; 
and  was  there  until  the  death  of  Herod : 
that  it  might  be  fulfilled  which  was

saying,  Out  of  Egypt  have  I  called  my

he  was  mocked  of  the  wise  men,  was 
exceeding  wroth,  and  sent  forth,  and 
slew  all  the  children  that  were  in 
Bethlehem,  and  in  all  the  coasts  thereof, 
from  two  years  old  and  under,  accord-

Arise,  and  take  the  young  child  and

and  comest  Thou  to  me?  And  Jesus 
answering  said  unto  him,  Suffer  it  to 
be  so  now :  for  thus  it  becometh  us 
to  fulfill  all  righteousness.  Then  he 
suffered  Him.  And  Jesus,  when  He 
was  baptized,  went  up  straightway  out 
of  the  water :  and,  lo,  the  heavens  were 
opened  unto  Him,  and  He  saw  the  Spirit

of  the  people  together,  lie  demanded  of 
them  where  Christ  should  be  born. 
And  they  said  unto  him,  In  Bethlehem 
of  Judea:  for  thus  it  is  written  by  the 
prophet,  And  thou,  Bethlehem,  in  the 
land  (if  Juda,  art  not  the  least  among 
the  princes  of  Juda :  for  out  of  thee 
shall  conic  a  Governor,  that  shall  rule 
my  people  Israel.  Then  Herod,  when 
he  had  privily  called  the  wise  men, 
inquired  of  them  diligently  what  time 
the  star  appeared.  And  he  sent  them 
to  Bethlehem,  and  said,  Go  and  search 
diligently  for  the  young  child;  and  when 
ye  have  found  Him,  bring  me  word 
again,  that  I  may  come  and  worship 
Him  also.  When  they  had  heard  the 
king,  they  departed ;  and,  lo,  the  star, 
which  they  saw  in  the  east,  went  before 
them,  till  it  came  and  stood  over  where 
the  young  child  was.  When  they  saw 
the  star,  they  rejoiced  with  exceeding 
great  joy.  And  when  they  were  come 
into  the  house,  they  saw  the  young  child 
with  Mary  His  mother,  and  fell  down 
and  worshipped  Him:  and  when  they 
had  opened  their  treasures,  they  pre- 
sented unto  Him  gifts :  gold  and  frank- 
incense and  myrrh.  And  being  warned 
of  God  in  a  dream  that  they  should  not 
return  to  Herod,  they  departed  into 
their  own  country  another  way.

Thou  shalt  not  commit  adultery,  Thou

Thou  shalt  not  bear  false  witness,  Thou 
shalt  not  covet ;  and  if  there  be  any

Another  parable  put  He  forth  unto

is  likened  unto  a  man  which  sowed 
good  seed  in  his  field:  but  while  men 
slept,  his  enemy  came  and  sowed  tares 
among  the  wheat,  and  went  his  way. 
But  when  the  blade  was  sprung  up, 
and  brought  forth  fruit,  then  appeared 
the  tares  also.  So  the  servants  of  the 
householder  came  and  said  unto  them, 
Sir,  didst  not  thou  sow  good  seed  in 
thy  field?  from  whence  then  hath  it 
tares?  He  said  unto  them.  An  enemy 
hath  done  this.  The  servants  said  unto 
him,  Wilt  thou  then  that  we  go  and 
gather  them  up?  But  he  said.  Nay, 
lest  while  ye  gather  up  the  tares,  ye 
root  up  also  the  wheat  with  them.  Let 
both  grow  together  until  the  harvest : 
and  in  the  time  of  harvest  I  will  say 
to  the  reapers,  Gather  ye  together  first 
the  tares,  and  bind  them  in  bundles  to 
burn  them:  but  gather  the  wheat  into 
my  barn.

And  after  six  days  Jesus  taketh 
Peter,  James,  and  John,  his  brother, 
and  bringelh  them  up  into  an  high 
mountain  apart,  and  was  transfigured 
before  them:  and  His  face  did  shine 
as  the  sun,  and  His  raiment  was  white 
as  the  Hght.  And,  behold,  there  ap- 
peared unto  them  Moses  and  Elias 
talking  with  Him.  Then  answered 
Peter,  and  said  unto  Jesus,  Lord,  it  is 
good  for  us  to  be  here:  if  Thou  wilt, 
let  us  make  here  three  tabernacles;  one 
for  Thee,  and  one  for  Moses,  and  one 
for  Elias.  While  he  yet  spake,  behold, 
a  bright  cloud  overshadowed  them: 
and  behold  a  voice  out  of  the  cloud, 
which  said.  This  is  my  beloved  Son,  in 
whom  I  am  well  pleased ;  hear  ye  Him. 
And  when  the  disciples  heard  it,  they 
fell  on  their  face,  and  were  sore  afraid. 
And  Jesus  came  and  touched  them, 
and  said.  Arise,  and  be  not  afraid.  And 
when  they  had  lifted  up  their  eyes,  they 
saw  no  man,  save  Jesus  only.  And  as 
they  came  down  from  the  mountain, 
Jesus  charged  them,  saying.  Tell  the

be  risen  again  from  the  dead.

God  and  Father  of  our  Lord  Jesus 
Christ,  which  is  blessed  for  evermore, 
knoweth  that  I  He  not.  In  Damascus 
the  governor  under  Aretas  the  king 
kept  the  city  of  the  Damascenes  with  a 
garrison,  desirous  to  apprehend  me; 
and  through  a  window  in  a  basket  was 
I  let  down  by  the  wall,  and  escaped  his 
hands.  It  is  not  expedient  for  me 
doubtless  to  glory.  I  will  come  to 
visions  and  revelations  of  the  Lord.  I 
knew  a  man  in  Christ  above  fourteen 
years  ago,  (whether  in  the  body,  I  can- 
not tell;  or  whether  out  of  the  body, 
I  cannot  tell:  God  knoweth;)  such  an 
one  caught  up  to  the  third  heaven.  And 
I  knew  such  a  man,  (whether  in  the 
body,  or  out  of  the  body,  I  cannot  tell  : 
God  knoweth;)  how  that  he  was 
caught  up  into  paradise,  and  heard  un- 
speakable words,  which  it  is  not  lawful 
for  a  man  to  utter.  Of  such  an  one  will 
I  glory :  yet  of  myself  I  will  not  glory, 
but  in  mine  infirmities.  For  though  I 
would  desire  to  glory,  I  shall  not  be  a 
fool ;  for  I  will  say  the  truth  :  but  now 
I  forbear,  lest  any  man  should  think  of 
me  above  that  which  he  seeth  me  to  be, 
or  that  he  heareth  of  me.  And  lest  I 
should  be  exalted  above  measure 
through  the  abundance  of  the  revela- 
tions, there  was  given  to  me  a  thorn  in 
the  flesh,  the  messenger  of  Satan  to 
bufifet  me,  lest  I  should  be  exalted  above 
measure.  For  this  thing  I  besought  the 
Lord  thrice,  that  it  might  depart  from 
me.  And  He  said  unto  me,  My  grace 
is  sufficient  for  thee ;  for  my  strength 
is  made  perfect  in  weakness.  Most 
gladly  therefore  will  I  rather  glory  in 
my  infirmities,  that  the  power  of  Christ 
may  rest  upon  me.

Gospel:    Xufte  8:4=15 

And  when  much  people  were  gath- 
ered together,  and  were  come  to  Him 
of  every  city,  He  spake  by  a  parable : 
A  sower  went  out  to  sow  his  seed :  and 
as  he  sowed,  some  fell  by  the  way  side ; 
and  it  was  trodden  down,  and  the  fowls 
of  the  air  devoured  it.  And  some  fell 
upon  a  rock;  and  as  soon  as  it  was 
sprung  up,  it  withered  away,  because 
*  it  lacked  moisture.  And  some  fell 
among  thorns;  and  the  thorns  sprang 
up  with  it,  and  choked  it.  And  others 
fell  on  good  ground,  and  sprang  up, 
and  bare  fruit  an  hundredfold.  And 
when  he  had  said  these  things,  He 
cried,  he  that  hath  ears  to  hear,  let 
him  hear.  And  His  disciples  asked 
Him,  saying.  What  might  this  parable 
be  ?  And  He  said,  Unto  you  it  is  given 
to  know  the  mysteries  of  the  kingdom 
of  God:  but  to  others  in  parables;  that 
seeing  they  might  not  see,  and  hearing 
they  might  not  understand.  Now  the 
parable  is  this:  The  seed  is  the  Word 
of  God.  Those  by  the  way  side  are 
they  that  hear;  then  cometh  the  devil, 
and  taketh  away  the  Word  out  of  their 
hearts,  lest  they  should  believe  and  be 
saved.  They  on  the  rock  are  they,

O  Lord,  we  beseech  Thee,  mercifully 
hear  our  prayers,  and,  having  set  us 
free  from  the  bonds  of  sin,  defend  us

Epistle :  I  Cor.  13 :  U13 
Though  1  speak  with  the  tongues  of 
men  and  of  angels,  and  have  not 
charity,  I  am  become  as  sounding  brass, 
or  a  tinkling  cymbal.  And  though  I 
have  the  gift  of  prophecy,  and  under- 
stand all  mysteries,  and  all  knowledge ; 
and  though  I  have  all  faith,  so  that  I 
could  remove  mountains,  and  have  not 
charity,  I  am  notiiing.  And  though  I 
bestow  all  my  goods  to  feed  the  poor, 
and  though  I  give  my  body  to  be  burned, 
and  have  not  charity,  it  profiteth  me 
nothing.  Charity  sufTereth  long,  and 
is  kind;  charity  envieth  not;  charity 
vaunteth  not  itself,  is  not  puffed  up, 
doth  not  behave  itself  unseemly,  seek- 
eth  not  her  own,  is  not  easily  provoked, 
thinketh  no  evil ;  rejoiceth  not  in 
iniquity,  but  rejoiceth  in  the  truth; 
bearcth  all  things,  bclicveth  all  things, 
hopeth  all  things,  ondunth  all  things. 
Charity  never  faileth :  but  whether  there 
be  prophecies,  they  shall  fail;  whether 
there  be  tongues,  they  shall  cease: 
whether  there  be  knowledge,  it  shall 
vanish  away.  For  we  know  in  part, 
and  we  prophesy  in  part.  iUit  when 
that  which  is  perfect  is  come,  then  that 
which  is  in  part  shall  be  done  away. 
When  I  w.1s  a  child.  I  spake  as  a  child, 


I  understood  as  a  child,  1  thought  as  a 
child;  but  when  I  became  a  man,  I 
put  away  childish  things.  For  now  we 
see  through  a  glass,  darkly;  but  then 
face  to  face :  now  I  know  in  part ;  but 
then  shall  I  know  even  as  also  I  am 
known.  And  now  abideth  faith,  hope, 
charity,  these  three;  but  the  greatest  of 
these  is  charity.

Then  He  took  unto  Him  the  twelve, 
and  said  unto  them.  Behold,  we  go  up 
to  Jerusalem,  and  all  things  that  are 
written  by  the  prophets  concerning  the 
Son  of  man  shall  be  accomplished.  For 
He  shall  be  delivered  unto  the  Gentiles,

entreated,  and  spitted  on :  and  they 
shall  scourge  Him,  and  put  Him  to 
death  :  and  the  third  day  He  shall  rise

went  before  rebuked  him,  that  he  should 
hold  his  peace :  but  he  cried  so  much 
the  more,  Thou  Son  of  David,  have 
mercy  on  me.  And  Jesus  stood,  and 
commanded  him  to  be  brought  unto 
Him:  and  when  he  was  come  near.  He 
asked  him.  saying.  What  wilt  thou  that 
I  shall  do  unto  thee?  and  h-?  said,  Lord,

But  thou,  when  thou  fastest,  anoint

Gospel:  /Datt.  4:lsll 
Then  was  Jesus  led  up  of  the  Spirit 
into  the  wilderness  to  be  tempted  of 
the  devil.  And  when  He  had  fasted 
forty  days  and  forty  nights.  He  was 
afterward  an  hungered.  And  when 
the  tempter  came  to  Him  he  said,  If 
thou  be  the  Son  of  God,  command  that 
these  stones  be  made  bread.  But  He 
answered  and  said.  It  is  written,  Man 
shall  not  live  by  bread  alone,  but  by 
every  word  that  proceedeth  out  of  the 
mouth  of  God.  Then  the  devil  taketh 
Him  up  into  the  holy  city,  and  setteth 
Him  on  a  pinnacle  of  the  temple,  and 
saith  unto  Him,  If  Thou  be  the  Son 
of  God,  cast  Thyself  down:  for  it  is 
written.  He  shall  give  His  angels  charge 
concerning  Thee ;  and  in  their  hands 
they  shall  bear  Thee  up,  lest  at  any 
time  Thou  dash  Thy  foot  against  a 
stone.  Jesus  said  unto  him.  It  is  writ- 
ten again.  Thou  shalt  not  tempt  the 
Lord  thy  God.  Again,  the  devil  taketh 
Him  up  into  an  exceeding  high  moun- 
tain, and  showeth  him  all  the  king- 
doms of  the  world,  and  the  glory  of 
them;  and  saith  unto  Him,  All  these 
things  will  I  give  unto  Thee,  if  Thou 
wilt  fall  down  and  worship  me.  Then 
saith  Jesus  unto  him.  Get  thee  hence, 
Satan :  for  it  is  written.  Thou  shalt  wor- 
ship the  Lord  thy  God.  and  Him  only 
shalt  thou  serve.  Then  the  devil  leav-

ministered   unto   Him.

<5ospcI :  Xuhc  11 :  I4s28 
And  He  was  casting  out  a  devil,  and 
it  was  dumb.  And  it  came  to  pass, 
when  the  devil  was  gone  out,  the  dumb 
spake;  and  the  people  wondered.  But 
some  of  them  said,  He  casteth  out  dev- 
ils through  Beelzebub,  the  chief  of 
the  devils.  And  others,  tempting  Him, 
sought  of  Him  a  sign  from  heaven. 
But  He,  knowing  their  thoughts,  said 
unto  them.  Every  kingdom  divided 
against  itself  is  brought  to  desolation; 
and  a  house  divided  against  a  house 
falleth.  H  Satan  also  be  divided  against 
himself,  how  shall  his  kingdom  stand? 
because  ye  say  that  I  cast  out  devils 
through  Beelzebub.  And  if  I  by  Beel- 
zebub cast  out  devils,  by  whom  do  your 
sons  cast  them  out?  therefore  shall  they 
be  your  judges.  But  if  I  with  the  finger 
of  God  cast  out  devils,  no  doubt  the 
kingdom  of  God  is  come  upon  you. 
When  a  strong  man  armed  keepeth  his 
palace,  his  goods  are  in  peace:  but  when 


a  stronger  than  he  shall  come  upon 
him,  and  overcome  him,  he  taketh  from 
him  all  his  armor  wherein  he  trusted, 
and  divideth  his  spoils.  He  that  is  not 
with  me  is  against  me;  and  he  that 
gathereth  not  with  me  scattereth. 
When  the  unclean  spirit  is  gone  out  of 
a  man,  he  walketh  through  dry  places, 
seeking  rest ;  and  finding  none,  he  saith, 
I  will  return  unto  my  house  whence  I 
came  out.  And  when  he  cometh,  he 
findeth  it  swept  and  garnished.  Then 
goeth  he,  and  taketh  to  him  seven  other 
spirits  more  wicked  than  himself;  and 
they  enter  in,  and  dwell  there :  and  the 
last  state  of  that  man  is  worse  than  the 
first.  And  it  came  to  pass,  as  He  spake 
these  things,  a  certain  woman  of  the 
company  lifted  up  her  voice,  and  said 
unto  Him,  Blessed  is  the  womb  that 
bare  Thee,  and  the  paps  which  Thou 
hast  sucked.  But  he  said,  Yea,  rather, 
blessed  are  they  that  hear  the  Word  of

sons,  the  one  by  a  bondmaid,  the  other 
by  a  free  woman.  But  he  who  was 
of  the  bondwoman  was  born  after  the 
flesh ;  but  he  of  the  free  woman  was 
by  promise.  Which  things  are  an  alle- 
gory:  for  these  are  the  two  covenants; 
the  one  from  the  mount  Sinai,  which 
gendereth  to  bondage,  which  is  Agar. 
For  tliis  Agar  is  mount  Sinai  in  Arabia, 
and  answereth  to  Jerusalem  which  now 
is,  and  is  in  bondage  with  her  chil- 
dren. But  Jerusalem  which  is  above  is 
free,  which  is  the  mother  of  us  all. 
For  it  is  written,  Rejoice,  thou  barren 
that  bearest  not;  break  forth  and  cry, 
thou  that  travailest  not :  for  the  deso- 
late hath  many  more  children  than  she 
which  hath  an  husband.  Now  we, 
brethren,  as  Isaac  was,  are  the  chil- 
dren of  promise.  But  as  then  he  that 
was  born  after  the  flesh  persecuted 
him  that  was  born  after  the  Spirit, 
even  so  it  is  now.  Nevertheless  what 
saith  the  Scripture?  Cast  out  the 
bondwoman  and  her  son :  for  the  son 
of  the  bondwoman  shall  not  be  heir  with 
the  son  of  the  freewoman.  So  then, 
brethren,  we  are  not  children  of  the 
bondwoman,  but  of  the  free.

And  we  know  that  all  things  work 
together  for  good  to  them  that  love 
God,  to  them  who  are  the  called  ac- 
cording to  His  purpose.  For  whom 
He  did  foreknow,  He  also  did  predes- 
tinate to  be  conformed  to  the  image 
of  His  Son,  that  He  might  be  the  first- 
born among  many  brethren.  Moreover, 
whom  He  did  predestinate,  them  He 
also  called;  and  whom  He  called,  them 
He  also  justified;  and  whom  He  jus- 
tified, them  He  also  glorified.  What 
shall  we  then  say  to  these  things?  If 
God  be  for  us,  who  can  be  against  us? 
He  that  spared  not  His  own  Son,  but 
delivered  Him  up  for  us  all,  how  shall 
He  not  with    Him  also   freely  give,  us 


all  things?  Who  shall  lay  anything  to  Fourth 
the  charge  of  God's  elect?  It  is  God  Sunday 
that  justifieth;  who  is  He  that  con-  in  Lent 
demneth?  It  is  Christ  that  died,  yea 
rather,  that  is  risen  again,  who  is  even 
at  the  right  hand  of  God,  who  also 
maketh  intercession  for  us.  Who  shall 
separate  us  from  the  love  of  Christ? 
shall  tribulation,  or  distress,  or  perse- 
cution, or  famine,  or  nakedness,  or 
peril,  or  sword?  As  it  is  written.  For 
Thy  sake  we  are  killed  all  the  day 
long;  we  are  accounted  as  sheep  for 
the  slaughter.  Nay,  in  all  these  things 
we  are  more  than  conquerors,  through 
Him  that  loved  us.  For  I  am  per- 
suaded, that  neither  death,  nor  hfe, 
nor  angels,  nor  principalities,  nor  pow- 
ers, nor  things  present,  nor  things  to 
come,  nor  height,  nor  depth,  nor  any 
other  creature,  shall  be  able  to  sep-

After  these  things  Jesus  went  over 
the  sea  of  Galilee,  which  is  the  sea 
of  Tiberias.  And  a  great  multitude  fol- 
lowed Him,  because  they  saw  His  mir- 
acles which  He  did  on  them  that  were 
diseased.  And  Jesus  went  up  into  a 
mountain,  and  there  He  sat  with  His 
disciples.  And  the  passover,  a  feast 
of  the  Jews,  was  nigh.  When  Jesus 
then  lifted  up  His  eyes,  and  saw  a  great 
company  come  unto  Him,  He  saith  unto 
Philip,  Whence  shall  we  buy  bread, 
that  these  may  eat?  (And  this  He  said 
to  prove  him:  for  He  Himself  knew 
what  He  would  do.)     Philip  answered

every  one  of  them  may  take  a  httle. 
One  of  His  disciples,  Andrew,  Simon 
Peter's  brother,  saith  unto  Him,  There 
is  a  lad  here,  which  hath  five  barley 
loaves,  and  two  small  fishes:  but  what 
are  they  among  so  many?  And  Jesus 
said.  Make  the  men  sit  down.  Now 
there  was  much  grass  in  the  place.  So 
the  men  sat  down,  in  number  about  five 
thousand.  And  Jesus  took  the  loaves; 
and  when  He  had  given  thanks,  He 
distributed  to  the  disciples,  and  the 
disciples  to  them  that  were  set  down; 
and  likewise  of  the  fishes  as  much  as 
they  would.  When  they  were  filled, 
He  said  unto  His  disciples,  Gather  up 
the  fragments  that  remain,  that  nothing 
be  lost.  Therefore  they  gathered  them 
together,  and  tilled  twelve  baskets  with 
the  fragments  of  the  five  barley  loaves, 
which  remained  over  and  above  unto 
them  that  had  eaten.  Then  those  men, 
when  they  had  seen  the  miracle  that 
Jesus  did,  said,  This  is  of  a  truth  that 
Prophet  that  should  come  into  the 
world.  When  Jesus  therefore  per- 
ceived that  they  would  come  and  take 
Him  by  force,  to  make  Him  a  king. 
He  departed  again  into  a  mountain 
Himself  alone.

At  that  time  Jesus  answered  and  said,

these  things  from  the  wise  and  pru-

answered  the  Jews,  and  said  unto  Him, 
Say  we  not  well  that  Thou  art  a  Sama-

I    have   not   a    devil;    but    I   honor   my

keep    His    saying.     Your    father    Abra-

He  had  given  thanks,  He  brake  it,  and 
said.  Take,  eat:  this  is  my  body,  which 
is  broken  for  you :  this  do  in  remem-

ye  drink  it,  in  remembrance  of  me.  For 
as  often  as  ye  eat  this  bread,  and  drink

shall  eat  this  bread,  and  drink  this  cup

of  the  body  and  blood  of  the  Lord.  But 
let  a  man  examine  himself,  and  so  let 
him  eat  of  that  bread,  and  drink  of  that 
cup.  For  he  that  eateth  and  drinketh 
unworthily,  eateth  and  drinketh  damna-

Lord's  body.  For  this  cause  many  are 
weak  and  sickly  among  you,  and  many

we  should  not  be  judged.  But  when  we

loved  them  unto  the  end.  And  sup- 
per being  ended,  the  devil  having  now 
put  into  the  heart  of  Judas  Iscariot, 
Simon's  son,  to  betray  Him ;  Jesus 
knowing  that  the  Father  had  given  all 
things  into  His  hands,  and  that  He  was 
come  from  God,  and  went  to  God;  He 
riseth  from  supper,  and  laid  aside  His 
garments ;  and  took  a  towel,  and  girded 
Himself.  After  that  He  poureth  water 
into  a  basin,  and  began  to  wash  the 
disciples'  feet,  and  to  wipe  them  with 
the  towel  wherewith  He  was  girded. 
Then  cometh  He  to  Simon  Peter;  and 
Peter  saith  unto  Him,  Lord,  dost  thou 
wash  my  feet?  Jesus  answered  and 
said  unto  him,  What  I  do,  thou  know- 
est  not  now ;  but  thou  shalt  know  here- 
after. Peter  saith  unto  Him,  Thou 
shalt  never  wash  my  feet.  Jesus  an- 
swered him,  If  I  wash  thee  not,  thou 
hast  no  part  with  me.  Simon  Peter 
saith  unto  Him,  Lord,  not  my  feet  only, 
but  also  my  hands  and  my  head.  Jesus 
saith  to  him,  He  that  is  washed  needeth 
not  save  to  wash  his  feet,  but  is  clean 
every  whit;  and  ye  are  clean,  but  not 
all.  For  He  knew  who  should  betray 
Him ;  therefore  said  He,  Ye  are  not  all 
clean.  So  after  He  had  washed  their 
feet,  and  had  taken  His  garments,  and 
was  set  down  again.  He  said  unto  them, 
Know  ye  what  I  have  done  to  you?  Ye 
call  me  Master  and  Lord :  and  ye  say 
well ;  for  so  I  am.  If  I  then,  your 
Lord  and  Master,  have  washed  your 
feet;  ye  also  ought  to  wash  one  an-

Good  heard    sliall    they   consider.      Who   hatli 

Friday  believed  our  report?  And  to  whom  is 
the  arm  of  the  Lord  revealed?  For 
he  shall  grow  up  before  him  as  a  ten- 
der plant,  and  as  a  root  out  of  a  dry 
ground:  he  hath  no  form  nor  comeli- 
ness; and  when  we  shall  see  him,  there 
is  no  beauty  that  we  should  desire  him. 
He  is  despised  and  rejected  of  men;  a 
man  of  sorrows,  and  acquainted  with 
grief:  and  we  hid  as  it  were  our  faces 
from  him;  he  was  despised,  and  we 
esteemed  him  not.  Surely  he  hath 
borne  our  griefs,  and  carried  our  sor- 
rows: yet  we  did  esteem  him  stricken, 
smitten  of  God,  and  afHicted.  But  he 
was  wounded  for  our  transgressions, 
he  was  bruised  for  our  iniquities:  the 
chastisement  of  our  peace  was  upon 
him ;  and  with  his  stripes  we  are  healed. 
All  we  like  sheep  have  gone  astray;  we 
have  turned  everyone  to  his  own  way; 
and  the  Lord  hath  laid  on  him  the  in- 
iquity of  us  all.  He  was  oppressed, 
and  he  was  afflicted,  yet  he  opened  not 
his  mouth:  he  is  brought  as  a  lamb 
to  the  slaughter,  and  as  a  sheep  before 
her  shearers  is  dumb,  so  he  openeth 
not  his  mouth.  He  was  taken  from 
prison  and  from  judgment:  and  who 
shall  declare  his  generation?  For  he 
was  cut  off  out  of  the  land  of  the  living: 
for  the  transgression  of  my  people  was 
he  stricken.  And  he  made  his  grave 
with  the  wicked,  and  with  the  rich  in 
his  death ;  because  he  had  done  no  vio- 
lence, neither  was  any  deceit  in  his 
mouth.  Yet  it  pleased  the  Lord  to 
bruise  him;  he  hath  put  him  to  grief: 
when  thou  .shalt  make  his  soul  an  offer- 
ing for  ain,  he  shall  see  his  seed,  he 
shall  prolong  his  days,  and  the  pleas- 
ure of  the  Lord  shall  prosper  in  his 
hand.  He  shall  see  of  the  travail  of 
his  soul,  and  shall  be  satisfied:  by  his 
knowledge  shall  my  righteous  servant 
justify  many;  for  he  shall  bear  their 
iniquities.     Therefore  will   I  divide  him 


a  portion  with  the  great,  and  he  shall 
divide  the  spoil  with  the  strong ;  be- 
cause he  hath  poured  out  his  soul  unto 
death :  and  he  was  numbered  with  the 
transgressors;  and  he  bare  the  sin  of 
many,  and  made  intercession  for  the 
transgressors.

OR  The  Passion  History 

When  Jesus  had  spoken  these  words, 
He  went  forth  with  His  disciples  over 
the  brook  Cedron,  where  was  a  gar- 
den, into  the  which  He  entered,  and 
His  disciples.  And  Judas  also,  which 
betrayed  Him,  knew  the  place:  for 
Jesus  ofttimes  resorted  thither  with  His 
disciples.  Judas  then,  having  received  a 
band  of  men  and  officers  from  the  chief 
priests  and  Pharisees,  cometh  thither 
with  lanterns  and  torches  and  weapons. 
Jesus  therefore,  knowing  all  things  that 
should  come  upon  Him,  went  forth,  and 
said  unto  them.  Whom  seek  ye?  They 
answered  Him,  Jesus  of  Nazareth. 
Jesus  saith  unto  them,  I  am  he.  And 
Judas  also,  which  betrayed  Him,  stood 
with  them.  As  soon  then  as  He  had 
said  unto  them,  I  am  He.  they  went 
backward,  and  fell  to  the  ground. 
Then  asked  He  them  again.  Whom  seek 
ye?  And  they  said,  Jesus  of  Nazareth. 
Jesus  answered,  I  have  told  you  that 
I  am  He:  if  therefore  ye  seek  me,  let 
these  go  their  way :  That  the  saying 
might  be  fulfilled,  which  He  spake.  Of 
them  which  thou  gavest  me  have  I  lost 
none.  Then  Simon  Peter  having  a 
sword  drew  it.  and  smote  the  high 
priest's  servant,  and  cut  off  his  right 
ear.  The  servant's  name  was  Malchus. 
Then  said  Jesus  unto  Peter,  put  up  thy 
sword   into  the   sheath :    the  cup   which

my  Father  hath  given  me,  shall  I  not 
drink  it?  Then  the  band  and  the  cap- 
tain and  officers  of  the  Jews  took  Jesus, 
and  bound  Him,  and  led  Him  away  to 
Annas  first;  for  he  was  father-in-law 
to  Caiaphas,  which  was  the  high  priest 
that  same  year.  Now  Caiaphas  was  he, 
which  gave  counsel  to  the  Jews,  that  it 
was  expedient  that  one  man  should  die 
for  the  people.  And  Simon  Peter  fol- 
lowed Jesus,  and  so  did  another  dis- 
ciple :  that  disciple  was  known  unto  the 
high  priest,  and  went  in  with  Jesus  into 
the  palace  of  the  high  priest.  But  Peter 
stood  at  the  door  without.  Then  went 
out  that  other  disciple,  which  was 
known  unto  the  high  priest,  and  spake 
unto  her  that  kept  the  door,  and  brought 
in  Peter.  Then  saith  the  damsel  that 
kept  the  door  unto  Peter,  Art  not  thou 
also  one  of  this  man's  disciples?  He 
saith,  I  am  not.  And  the  servants  and 
officers  stood  there,  who  had  made  a 
fire  of  coals,  for  it  was  cold ;  and  they 
warmed  themselves :  and  Peter  stood 
with  them,  and  warmed  himself.  The 
high  priest  then  asked  Jesus  of  His  dis- 
ciples, and  of  His  doctrine.  Jesus  an- 
swered him,  I  spake  openly  to  the 
world ;  I  ever  taught  in  the  synagogue, 
and  in  the  temple,  whither  the  Jews 
always  resort ;  and  in  secret  have  I 
said  nothing.  Why  askest  thou  me? 
ask  them  which  heard  me,  what  I  have 
said  unto  them:  behold,  they  know 
what  I  said.  And  when  He  had  thus 
spoken,  one  of  the  officers  which  stood 
by  struck  Jesus  with  the  palm  of  his 
hand,  saying,  Answerest  thou  the  high 
priest  so?  Jesus  answered  him,  If  I 
have  spoken  evil,  bear  witness  of  the 
evil:  but  if  well,  why  smitest  thou  me? 
Now  Annas  had  sent  Him  bound  unto 
Caiaphas  the  high  priest.  And  Simon 
Peter  stood  and  warmed  himself.  They 
said  therefore  unto  him.  Art  not  thou 
also  one  of  His  disciples?  He  denied 
it,  and  said,  I  am  not.     One  of  the  ser- 


vants of  the  high  priest,  being  his  kins-    Good 
man    whose    ear    Peter    cut    off,    saith,   Friday 
Did  not  I  see  thee  in  the  garden  with 
Him?      Peter   then    denied   again:    and 
immediately   the   cock   crew.     Then   led 
they  Jesus  from  Caiaphas  unto  the  hall 
of   judgment:     and    it    was  early;    and 
they  themselves  went  not  into  the  judg- 
ment hall,   lest  they  should  be  defiled ; 
but    that  they   might   eat   the  passover. 
Pilate  then    went   out   unto    them,    and 
said,   What  accusation  bring  ye  against 
this    man?      They    answered    and    said 
unto  him,  If  He  were  not  a  malefactor, 
we   would   not  have   delivered   Him  up 
unto  thee.     Then  said  Pilate  unto  them. 
Take    ye     Him,     and    judge    Him    ac- 
cording to  your  law.     The  Jews  there- 
fore said  unto  him,  It  is  not  lawful  for 
us  to  put  any  man  to  death :    that  the 
saying  of  Jesus  might  be  fulfilled,  which 
He    spake,    signifying    what    death    He 
should    die.     Then    Pilate    entered    into 
the    judgment    hall    again,    and    called 
Jesus,  and  said  unto  Him,  Art  Thou  the 
King    of    the    Jews?      Jesus    answered 
Him,    Sayest    thou    this    thing   of    thy- 
self,  or  did  others  tell   it  thee  of  me? 
Pilate    answered.    Am    I   a   Jew?  Thine 
own  nation  and  the  chief  priests  have 
delivered    Thee    unto    me :     what    hast 
Thou  done?    Jesus  answered.  My  king- 
dom is  not  of  this  world:    if  my  king- 
dom were  of  this  world,  then  would  my 
servants  fight,  that  I  should  not  be  de- 
livered  to   the   Jews :     but    now   is   my 
kingdom  not  from  hence.     Pilate  there- 
fore said   unto  Him,  Art  Thou   a  king 
then?      Jesus    answered.    Thou    sayest 
that  I  am  a  king.     To  this  end  was  I 
born,  and  for  this  cause  came  I  into  the 
world,  that  I  should  bear  witness  unto 
the   truth.      Every   one   that    is    of   the 
truth    heareth    my    voice.      Pilate   saith 
unto  Him,  What  is  truth?     And  when 
he    had    said    this,    he    went    out    again 
unto  the  Jews,   and   saith  unto  them,    I 
find  in  Him  no  fault  at  all.    But  ye  have

saying.  Not  this  man,  but  Barabbas. 
Now  Carabbas  was  a  robber.

Then  Pilate  therefore  took  Jesus,  and 
scourged  Him.  And  the  soldiers  plaited 
a  crown  of  thorns,  and  put  it  on  His 
head,  and  they  put  on  Him  a  purple 
robe,  and  said,  Hail,  King  of  the  Jews ! 
And  they  smote  Him  with  their  hands. 
Pilate  therefore  went  forth  again,  and 
saith  unto  them,  Behold,  I  bring  Him 
forth  to  you,  that  ye  may  know  that  I 
find  no  fault  in  Him.  Then  came  Je- 
sus forth,  wearing  the  crown  of  thorns, 
and  the  purple  robe.  And  Pilate  saith 
unto  them.  Behold  the  man !  When  the 
chief  priests  therefore  and  officers  saw 
Him,  they  cried  out,  saying,  Crucify 
Him,  crucify  Him.  Pilate  saith  unto 
them.  Take  ye  Him,  and  crucify  Him : 
for  I  find  no  fault  in  Him.  The  Jews 
answered  him.  We  have  a  law,  and  by 
our  law  He  ought  to  die,  because  He 
made  Himself  the  Son  of  God.  When 
Pilate  therefore  heard  that  saying,  he 
was  the  more  afraid;  and  went  again 
into  the  judgment  hall,  and  saith  unto 
Jesus,  Whence  art  Thou?  But  Jesus 
gave  him  no  answer.  Then  saith  Pilate 
unto  Him.  Spcakest  Thou  not  unto  me? 
Knowest  Thou  not  that  I  have  power 
to  crucify  Thee,  and  have  power  to  re- 
lease Thee?  Jesus  answered.  Thou 
couldest  have  no  power  at  all  against 
me,  except  it  were  given  thee  from 
above:  therefore  he  that  delivered  me 
unto  thee  hath  the  greater  sin.  And 
from  thenceforth  Pilate  sought  to  re- 
lease Him:  but  the  Jews  cried  out.  say- 
ing. If  thou  let  this  man  go,  thou  art 
not  Cxsar's  friend :  whosoever  makcth 
himself  a  king  speaketh  against  Caesar. 
When    Pilate   therefore   heard  that    say- 


ing, he  brought  Jesus  forth,  and  sat 
down  in  the  judgment  seat  in  a  place 
that  is  called  the  Pavement,  but  in  the 
Hebrew,  Gabbatha.  And  it  was  the 
preparation  of  the  passover,  and  about 
the  sixth  hour:  and  he  saith  unto  the 
Jews,  Behold  your  King!  But  they 
cried  out.  Away  with  Him,  away  with 
Him,  crucify  Him.  Pilate  saith  unto 
them,  Shall  I  crucify  your  King?  The 
chief  priests  answered.  We  have  no 
king  but  Caesar.  Then  delivered  he 
Him  therefore  unto  them  to  be  cruci- 
fied. And  they  took  Jesus,  and  led 
Him  away.  And  He  bearing  His  cross 
went  forth  into  a  place  called  the  place 
of  a  skull,  which  is  called  in  the  He- 
brew Golgotha :  where  they  'crucified 
Him,  and  two  others  with  Him,  on 
either  side  one,  and  Jesus  in  the  midst. 
And  Pilate  wrote  a  title,  and  put  it  on 
the  cross.  And  the  writing  was,  JESUS 
OF  NAZARETH  THE  KING  OF 
T?IE  JEWS.  This  title  then  read  many 
of  the  Jews :  for  the  place  where  Jesus 
was  crucified  was  nigh  to  the  city:  and 
it  was  written  in  Hebrew,  and  Greek, 
and  Latin.  Then  said  the  chief  priests 
of  the  Jews  to  Pilate,  Write  not.  The 
King  of  the  Jews :  but  that  he  said, 
I  am  King  of  the  Jews.  Pilate  an- 
swered. What  I  have  written  I  have 
written.  Then  the  soldiers,  when  they 
had  crucified  Jesus,  took  his  garments, 
and  made  four  parts,  to  every  soldier  a 
part;  and  also  his  coat:  now  the  coat 
was  without  seam,  woven  from  the 
top  throughout.  They  said  therefore 
among  themselves,  Let  us  not  rend  it, 
but  cast  lots  for  it,  whose  it  shall  be: 
that  the  Scripture  might  be  fulfilled, 
which  saith.  They  parted  my  raiment 
among  them,  and  for  my  vesture  they 
did  cast  lots.  These  things  therefore 
the  soldiers  did.  Now  there  stood  by 
the  cross  of  Jesus  His  mother,  and  His 
mother's  sister.  Mary  the  wife  of  Cleo- 
phas.   and   Mary  Magdalene.     When  Je- 


Ifntroits,  Collects  ant)  Gra^uals 


31 


sus  therefore  saw  His  mother,  and  the 
disciple  standing  by,  whom  He  loved, 
He  saith  unto  His  mother,  Woman,  be- 
hold thy  son!  Then  saith  He  to  the 
disciple.  Behold  thy  mother !  And  from 
that  hour  that  disciple  took  her  unto 
his  own  home.  After  this,  Jesus  know- 
ing that  all  things  were, now  accom- 
plished, that  the  Scripture  might  be  ful- 
filled, saith,  I  thirst.  Now  there  was 
set  a  vessel  full  of  vinegar :  and  they 
filled  a  sponge  with  vinegar,  and  put  it 
upon  hyssop,  and  put  it  to  His  mouth. 
When  Jesus  therefore  had  received  the 
vinegar.  He  said,  It  is  finished;  and 
He  bowed  His  head,  and  gave  up  the 
ghost.  The  Jews  therefore,  because  it 
was  th^  preparation,  that  the  bodies 
should  not  remain  upon  the  cross  on 
the  Sabbath  day,  (for  that  Sabbath  day 
was  .-'n  high  day,)  besought  Pilate  that 
their  legs  might  be  broken,  and  that 
thev  might  be  taken  away.  Then  came 
the  soldiers,  and  brake  the  legs  of  the 
first,  and  of  the  other  which  was  cruci- 
fied with  Him.  But  when  they  came  to 
Jesus,  and  saw  that  He  was  dead 
already,  they  brake  not  His  legs :  but 
one  of  the  soldiers  with  a  spear  pierced 
His  side,  and  forthwith  came  there  out 
blood  i>nd  water.  And  he  that  saw  it 
bare  record,  and  his  record  is  true; 
and  he  knoweth  that  he  saith  true,  that 
ye  might  believe.  For  these  things 
were  done,  that  the  Scripture  should  be 
fulfilled,  A  bone  of  Him  shall  not  be 
broken.  And  again  another  Scripture 
s'aith.  They  shall  look  on  Him  whom 
they  pierced.  And  after  this  Joseph  of 
Arimathea,  being  a  disciple  of  Jesus, 
but  secretly  for  fear  of  the  Jews,  be- 
sought Pilate  that  he  might  take  away 
the  body  of  Jesus :  and  Pilate  gave  him 
leave.  He  came  therefore,  and  took  the 
body  of  Jesus.  And  there  came  also 
Nicodemus,  (which  at  the  first  came  to 
Jesus  by  night,)  and  brought  a  mixture 
of  myrrh  and   aloes,   about  an  hundred 


pound    weight.      Then    took    they    the   Good 
body   of  Jesus,   and  wound   it  in   linen    Friday 
clothes  with  the   spices,  as  the  manner    ^^ 
of   the   Jews    is   to   bury.      Now    in   the      ^ 
place  where  He  was  crucified  there  was 
a   garden ;     and    in   the    garden    a    new 
sepulchre,   wherein  was  never  man  yet 
laid.     There   laid   they   Jesus   therefore 
because   of  the   Jews'   preparation  day; 
for  the  sepulchre  was  nigh  at  hand.

And  when  the  Sabbath  was  past,  Mary 
Magdalene,  and  Mary  the  mother  of 
James,  and  Salome,  had  bought  sweet 
spices,  that  they  might  come  and  anoint 
Him.  And  very  early  in  the  morning, 
th-  first  day  of  the  week,  they  came 
unto  the  sepulchre  at  the  rising  of  the 
sun.  And  they  said  among  themselves, 
Who  shall  roll  us  away  the  stone  from 
the  door  of  the  sepulchre?  And  when 
they  looked,  they  saw  that  the  stone 
was  rolled  away :  for  it  was  very  great. 
And  entering  into  the  sepulchre,  they 
saw  a  young  man  sitting  on  the  right 
side,  clothed  in  a  long  white  garment ; 
and  they  were  affrighted.     And  he  saith 


unto  them.  Be  not  affrighted :  ye  seek 
Jesus  of  Nazareth,  which  was  crucified; 
He  is  risen;  He  is  not  here:  behold  the 
place  where  they  laid  Him.  But  go 
your  way,  tell  His  disciples  and  Peter 
that  He  goeth  before  you  into  Galilee : 
there  shall  ye  see  Him,  as  He  said 
unto  you.  And  they  went  out  quickly, 
and  fled  from  the  sepulchre;  for  they 
trembled  and  were  amazed :  neither  said 
they  anything  to  any  man;  for  they 
were  afraid.

Epistle :  Hcts  10  : 3't*4l 
Then  Peter  opened  his  mouth,  and 
said,  Of  a  truth  I  perceive  that  God  is 
no  respecter  of  persons ;  but  in  every 
nation  he  that  feareth  Him,  and  work- 
eth  righteousness,  is  accepted  with  Him. 
The  word  which  God  sent  unto  the  chil- 
dren of  Israel,  preaching  peace  by  Jesus 
Christ:  (He  is  Lord  of  all:)  that  word, 
I  say,  ye  know,  which  was  published 
throughout  all  Judea,  and  began  from 
Galilee,  after  the  baptism  which  John 
preached ;  how  God  anointed  Jesus  of 
Nazareth  with  the  Holy  Ghost  and  with 
power ;  Who  went  about  doing  good, 
and  healing  all  that  were  oppressed  of 
the  devil ;  for  God  was  with  Him. 
And  we  are  witnesses  of  all  things 
which  He  did  both  in  the  land  of  the 
Jews,  and  in  Jerusalem ;  Whom  they 
slew  and  hanged  on  a  tree :  Him 
God  raised  up  the  third  day,  and 
showed  Him  openly;  not  to  all  the  peo- 
ple, but  unto  witnesses  chosen  before 
of  God,  even  to  us,  who  did  eat  and 
drink  with  Him  after  He  rose  from 
the  dead.

And,  behold,  two  of  them  went  that 
same  day  to  a  village  called  Emmaus, 
which  was  from  Jerusalem  about  three- 
score   furlongs.      And    they    talked    to- 
gether  of   all   these   things    which   had 
happened^     And  it  came  to  pass,  that, 
while  they  communed  together  and  rea- 
soned,  Jesus    Himself    drew   near,    and 
went  with  them.     But  their  eyes  were 
holden  that  they  should  not  know  Him. 
And  He  said  unto  them,  What  manner 
of    communications    are    these    that    ye 
have  one  to  another,   as  ye   walk,   and 
are  sad?     And  the  one  of  them,  whose 
name  was  Cleopas,  answering  said  unto 
Him,  Art  Thou  only  a  stranger  in  Jeru- 
salem, and  hast   not   known  the   things 
which  are  come  to  pass  there  in  these 
days?     And  He  said  unto  them,  What 
things?    And  they  said  unto  Him,  Con- 
cerning Jesus   of   Nazareth,  which  was 
a  prophet  mighty  in  deed  and  word  be- 
fore God  and  all  the  people :  and  how 
the  chief  priests  and  our   rulers  deliv- 
ered  Him   to   be   condemned   to   death, 
and  have  crucified  Him.   But  we  trusted 
that  it  had  been  He  which  should  have 
redeemed   Israel :    and  besides  all   this, 
to-day    is    the    third    day    since    these 
things    were    done.      Yea,    and    certain 
women  also  of  our  company  made   us 
astonished,    which    were    early    at    the 
sepulchre;     and    when    they    found   not 
His  body,  they  came,  saying,  that  they 
had  also  seen  a  vision  of  angels,  which 
said  that   He   was   alive.     And   certain 
of  them  which  were  with  us  went  to  the 
sepulchre,  and  found  it  even  so  as  the 
women    had    said :    but    Him    they    saw 
not.     Then  He  said  unto  them.  O  fools, 
and  slow  of  heart  to  believe  all  that  the 
prophets     have     spoken !      Ought     not 
Christ    to    have    suffered    these    things, 
and  to  enter  into  His  glory?     And  be- 


ginning at  Moses  and  all  the  Prophets, 
He  expounded  unto  them  in  all  the 
Scriptures  the  things  concerning  Him- 
self. And  they  drew  nigh  unto  the 
village,  whither  they  went :  and  He 
made  as  though  He  would  have  gone 
farther.  But  they  constrained  Him, 
saying,  Abide  with  us ;  for  it  is  toward 
evening,  and  the  day  is  far  spent.  And 
He  went  in  to  tarry  with  them.  And  it 
came  to  pass,  as  He  sat  at  meat  with 
them,  He  took  bread,  and  blessed  it,  and 
brake  and  gave  to  them.  And  their 
eyes  were  opened,  and  they  knew  Him ; 
and  He  vanished  out  of  their  sight. 
And  they  said  one  to  another.  Did  not 
our  heart  burn  within  us,  while  He 
talked  with  us  by  the  way,  and  while 
He  opened  to  us  the  Scriptures?  And 
they  rose  up  the  same  hour,  and  re- 
turned to  Jerusalem,  and  found  the 
eleven  gathered  together,  and  them  that 
were  with  them,  saying,  The  Lord  is 
risen  indeed,  and  hath  appeared  to  Si- 
mon. And  they  told  what  things  were 
done  in  the  way,  and  how  He  was 
known  of  them  in  breaking  of  bread.

For  whatsoever  is  born  of  God  over- 
cometh  the  world:  and  this  is  the  vic- 
tory that  overcometh  the  world  even 
our  faith.  Who  is  he  that  overcometh 
the  world,  but  he  that  believeth  that 
Jesus  is  the  Son  of  God?  This  is  He 
that  came  by  water  and  blood,  even 
Jesus  Christ ;  not  by  water  only,  but 
by  water  and  blood.  And  it  is  the  Spirit 
that  beareth  witness,  because  the  Spirit 
is  truth.  For  there  are  three  that  bear 
record  in  heaven,  the  Father,  the  Word, 
and  the  Holy  Ghost :  and  these  three 
are  one.  And  there  are  three  that  bear 
witness  in  earth,  the  Spirit,  and  the 
water,  and  the  blood :  and  these  three 
agree  in  one.  If  we  receive  the  witness 
of  men,  the  witness  of  God  is  greater : 
for  this  is  the  witness  of  God  which  He 
hath  testified  of  His  Son.  He  that  be- 
lieveth on  the  Son  of  God  hath  the  wit- 
ness in  himself:  he  that  believeth  not 
God  hath  made  Him  a  liar;  because  he 
believeth  not  the  record  that  God  gave 
of  His  Son.

(Boepel:  Jobn  20:td«3l 
Then  the  same  day  at  evening,  being 
the  first  day  of  the  week,  when  the 
doors  were  shut  where  the  disciples 
were  assembled  for  fear  of  the  Jews, 
came  Jesus  and  stood  in  the  midst,  and 
saith  unto  them,  Peace  be  imto  you. 
And  when  He  had  so  said.  He  showed 
unto  them  His  hands  and  His  side. 
Then  were  the  disciples  glad,  when  they 
saw  the  Lord.  Then  said  Jesus  to  them 
again,  Peace  be  unto  you:  as  my  Father 


hath  sent  me,  even  so  send  I  you.  And 
when  He  had  said  this,  He  breathed  on 
them,  and  saith  unto  them.  Receive  ye 
the  Holy  Ghost :  whosesoever  sins  ye 
remit,  they  are  remitted  unto  them; 
and  whosesoever  sins  ye  retain,  they  are 
retained.  But  Thomas,  one  of  the 
twelve,  called  Didymus,  was  not  with 
them  when  Jesus  came.  The  other  dis- 
ciples therefore  said  unto  him.  We  have 
seen  the  Lord.  But  he  said  unto  them, 
Except  I  shall  see  in  His  hands  the 
print  of  the  nails,  and  put  my  finger 
into  the  print  of  the  nails,  and  thrust  my 
hand  into  His  side.  I  will  not  believe. 
And  after  eight  days  again  His  dis- 
ciples were  within,  and  Thomas  with 
them :  then  came  Jesus,  the  doors  be- 
ing shut,  and  stood  in  the  midst,  and 
said.  Peace  be  unto  you.  Then  saith  He 
to  Thomas,  Reach  hither  thy  finger, 
and  behold  my  hands;  and  reach  hither 
thy  hand,  and  thrust  it  into  my  side: 
and  be  not  faithless,  biit  believing.  And 
Thomas  answered  and  said  unto  Him, 
My  Lord  and  my  God.  Jesus  saith 
unto  him.  Thomas,  because  thou  hast 
seen  me,  thou  hast  believed;  blessed 
are  they  that  have  not  seen,  and  yet 
have  believed.  And  many  other  signs 
truly  did  Jesus  in  the  presence  of  His 
disciples,  which  are  not  written  in  this 
book :  but  these  are  written,  that  ye 
might  believe  that  Jesus  is  the  Christ, 
the  Son  of  God ;  and  that  believing  ye 
might  have  life  through  His  name.

A  little  while,  and  ye  shall  not  see

is  this  that  He  saith,  A  little  while?  we 
cannot  tell  what  He  saith.  Now  Jesus 
knew  that  they  were  desirous  to  ask 
Him,  and  said  unto  them.  Do  ye  inquire

delivered  of  the  child,  she  remcmhcreth 


no  more  the  anguish,  for  joy  that  a  man 
is  born  into  the  world.  And  ye  now 
therefore  have  sorrow ;  but  1  will  see 
you  again,  and  your  heart  shall  rejoice, 
and  your  joy  no  man  taketh  from  you. 
And  in  that  day  ye  shall  ask  me  noth-

Epistle :    3ames  1 :  22s27 

But  be  ye  ^oers  of  the  Word,  and  not 
hearers  only,  deceiving  your  own  selves. 
For  if  any  be  a  hearer  of  the  Word, 
and  not  a  doer,  he  is  like  unto  a  man 
beholding  his  natural  face  in  a  glass : 
for  he  beholdeth  himself,  and  goeth  his 
way,  and  straightway  forgetteth  what 
manner  of  man  he  was.  But  whoso 
looketh  into  the  perfect  law  of  liberty, 
and  continueth  therein,  he  being  not  a 
forgetful  hearer,  but  a  doer  of  the  work, 
this  man  shall  be  blessed  in  his  deed. 
If  any  man  among  you  seem  to  be  re- 
ligious, and  bridleth  not  his  tongue,  but 
deceiveth  his  own  heart,  this  man's  re- 
ligion is  vain.  Pure  religion  and  unde- 
filed  before  God  and  the  Father  is  this. 
To  visit  the  fatherless  and  widows  in

Epistle:  Bct0t:t«tt 
The  former  treatise  have  I  made,  O 
Theophilus,  of  all  that  Jesus  began  both 
to  do  and  teach,  until  the  day  in  which 
He  was  taken  up,  after  that  He  through 
the  Holy  Ghost  had  given  command- 
ments unto  the  apostles  wh9m  He  had 
chosen :  to  whom  also  He  showed  Him- 
self alive  after  His  passion  by  many 
infallible  proofs,  being  seen  of  them 
forty  days,  and  speaking  of  the  things 
pertaining  to  the  kingdom  of  God:  and, 
being  assembled  together  with  them, 
commanded  them  that  they  should  not 
depart  from  Jerusalem,  but  wait  for 
the  promise  of  the  Father,  which,  saith 
He,  ye  have  heard  of  me.  For  John 
truly  baptized  with  water;  but  ye  shall 
be  baptized  with  the  Holy  Ghost  not 
many  days  hence.  When  they  there- 
fore were  come  together,  they  asked 
of  Him,  saying,  Lord,  wilt  Thou  at 
this  time  restore  again  the  kingdom  to 
Israel  ?  And  He  said  unto  them,  It 
is  not  for  you  to  know  the  times  or  the 
seasons,  which  the  Father  hath  put  in 
His  own  power.  But  ye  shall  receive 
power,  after  that  the  Holy  Ghost  is 
come  upon  you :  and  ye  shall  be  wit- 
nesses unto  me  both  in  Jerusalem,  and 
in  all  Judea,  and  in  Samaria,  and  unto 
the  uttermost  part  of  the  earth.  And 
when  He  had  spoken  these  things, 
while  they  beheld,  He  was  taken  up; 
and  a  cloud  received  Him  out  of  their 
sight.  And  while  they  looked  stead- 
fastly toward  heaven  as  He  went  up, 
behold,  two  men  stood  by  them  in  white 
apparel;  which  al.so  said.  Ye  men  of 
Galilee,  why  stand  ye  gazing  up  into 
heaven  ?  this  same  Jesus,  which  is  taken 
up  from  you  into  heaven,  shall  so  come 
in  like  manner  as  ye  have  seen  Him  go 
into  heaven.

Afterward  He  appeared  unto  the  eleven 
as  they  sat  at  meat,  and  upbraided  them 
with  their  unbelief  and  hardness  of 
heart,  because  they  believed  not  them 
which  had  seen  Him  after  He  was  risen. 
And  He  said  unto  them,  Go  ye  into 
all  the  world,  and  preach  the  gospel 
to  every  creature.  He  that  believeth 
and  is  baptized  shall  be  saved;  but  he

And  when  the  day  of  Pentecost  was 
fully  come,  they  were  all  with  one 
accord  in  one  place.  And  suddenly 
there  came  a  sound  from  heaven  as 
of  a  rushing  mighty  wind,  and  it  filled 
all  the  house  where  they  were  sitting. 
And  there  appeared  unto  them  cloven 
tongues  like  as  of  fire,  and  it  sat  upon 
each  of  them.  And  they  were  all  filled 
with  the  Holy  Ghost,  and  began  to  speak 
with  other  tongues,  as  the  Spirit  gave 
them  utterance.  And  there  were  dwell- 
ing at  Jerusalem  Jews,  devout  men, 
out  of  every  nation  under  heaven.  Now 
when  this  was  noised  abroad,  the  mul- 
titude came  together,  and  were  con- 
founded, because  that  every  man  heard 
them  speak  in  his  own  language.  And 
they  were  all  amazed  and  marvelled, 
saying  one  to  another.   P.iIh.I*!    .-in-  not

For  God  so  loved  the  world,  that 
He  gave  His  only-begotten  Son,  that 
whosoever  believeth  in  Him  should  not 
perish,  but  have  everlasting  life.  For 
God  sent  not  His  Son  into  the  world 
to  condemn  the  world;  but  that  the 
world  through  Him  might  be  saved. 
He  that  believeth  on  Him  is  not  con- 
demned; but  he  that  believeth  not  is 
condemned  already,  because  he  hath  not 
believed  in  the  name  of  the  only- 
begotten  Son  of  God.  And  this  is  the 
condemnation,  that  light  is  come  into  the 
world,  and  men  loved  darkness  rather 
than  light,  because  their  deeds  were 
evil.  For  every  one  that  doeth  evil 
hateth  the  light,  neither  cometh  to  the 
light,  lest  his  deeds  should  be  reproved. 
But  he  that  doeth  truth  cometh  to

said  unto  Him,  Rabbi,  we  know  that 
Thou  art  a  teacher  come  from  God : 
for  no  man  can  do  these  miracles  that 
Thou  doest,  except  God  be  with  him. 
Jesus  answered  and  said  unto  him.  Ver- 
ily, verily.  I  say  unto  thee.  Except  a 
man  be  born  again,  he  cannot  see  the 
kingdom  of  God.  Nicodemus  saith  unto 
Him,  How  can  a  man  be  born  when 
he  is  old?  can  he  enter  the  second  time 
into  his  mother's  womb,  and  be  born? 
Jesus  answered.  Verily,  verily,  I  say 
unto  thee.  Except  a  man  be  born  of 
water  and  of  the  Spirit,  he  cannot  enter 
into  the  kingdom  of  God.    That  which  is 


born  of  the  flesh  is  flesh ;  and  that  which 
is  born  of  the  Spirit  is  spirit.  Marvel 
not  that  I  said  unto  thee,  Ye  must  be 
born  again.  The  wind  bloweth  where 
it  listeth,  and  thou  hearest  the  sound 
thereof,  but  canst  not  tell  whence  it 
Cometh,  and  whither  it  goeth :  so  is 
every  one  that  is  born  of  the  Spirit. 
Nicodcmus  answered  and  said  unto 
Him,  How  can  these  things  be?  Je- 
sus answered  and  said  unto  him.  Art 
thou  a  master  of  Israel,  and  knowest 
not  these  things?  Verily,  verily,  I  say 
unto  thee.  We  speak  that  we  do  know, 
and  testify  that  we  have  seen ;  and  ye 
receive  not  our  witness.  If  I  have  told 
you  earthly  things,  and  ye  believe  not, 
how  shall  ye  believe,  if  I  tell  you  of 
heavenly  things?  And  no  man  hath 
ascended  up  to  heaven,  but  He  that 
came  down  from  heaven,  even  the  Son 
of  man  which  is  in  heaven.  And  as 
Moses  lifted  up  the  serpent  in  the  wil- 
derness, even  so  must  the  Son  of  man 
be  lifted  up :  that  whosoever  believeth 
in  Him  should  not  perish,  but  have 
eternal    life.

Epistle  :  I  3obn  4 :  ies20 
And  we  have  known  and  beHeved  the 
love  that  God  hath  to  us.  God  is  love; 
and  he  that  dwelleth  in  love  dwelleth  in 
God,  and  God  in  him.  Herein  is  our 
love  made  perfect,  that  we  may  have 
boldness  in  the  day  of  judgment;  be- 
cause as  He  is,  so  are  we  in  this 
world.  There  is  no  fear  in  love;  but 
perfect  love  casteth  out  fear:  because 
fear  hath  torment.  He  that  feareth  is 
not  made  perfect  in  love.  We  love 
Him  because  He  first  loved  us.  If  a 
man  say,  I  love  God,  and  hateth  his 
brother,  he  is  a  liar:  for  he  that  loveth 
not  his  brother  whom  he  hath  seen, 
how  can  he  love  God  whom  he  hath  not 
seen?  And  this  commandment  have  we 
from  Him,  That  he  who  loveth  God

Gospel:  Xufce  16:19*31 
There  was  a  certain  rich  man,  which 
was  clothed  in  purple  and  fine  linen, 
and  fared  sumptuously  every  day:  and 
there  was  a  certain  beggar  named  La- 
zarus, which  was  laid  at  his  gate,  full 
of  sores,  and  desiring  to  be  fed  with 
the  crumbs  which  fell  from  the  rich 
man's  table :  moreover  the  dogs  came 
and  licked  his  sores.  And  it  came  to 
pass,  that  the  beggar  died,  and  was 
carried  by  the  angels  into  Abraham's 
bosom :  the  rich  man  also  died,  and 
was  buried ;  and  in  hell  he  lifted  up 
his  eyes,  being  in  torments,  and  seeth 
Abraham  afar  off,  and  Lazarus  in  his 
bosom.  And  he  cried  and  said.  Father 
Abraham,  have  mercy  on  me,  and  send 


Lazarus,  that  he  may  dip  the  tip  of  his    pj^st  g^^d 

finger   in   water,   and   cool   my   tongue;    Second

in    thy    lifetime    receivedst    thy    good 

things,  and  likewise  Lazarus  evil  things : 
but  now  he  is  comforted,  and  thou  art 
tormented.  And  beside  all  this,  between 
us  and  you  there  is  a  great  gi.lf  fixed : 
so  that  they  which  would  pass  from 
hence  to  you  cannot;  neither  can  they 
pass  to  us,  that  would  come  from 
thence.  Then  he  said,  I  pray  thee, 
therefore,  father,  that  thou  wouldest 
send  him  to  my  father's  house:  for  I 
have  five  brethren;  that  he  may  tes- 
tify unto  them,  lest  they  also  come  into 
this  place  of  torment.  Abraham  saith 
unto  him.  They  have  Moses  and  the 
prophets;  let  them  hear  them.  And  he 
said,  Nay,  father  Abraham :  but  if  one 
went  unto  them  from  the  dead,  they 
will  repent.  And  he  said  unto  him,  If 
they  hear  not  Moses  and  the  prophets, 
neither  will  they  be  persuaded,  though 
one  rose  from  the  dead.

A  certain  man  made  a  great  supper, 
and  bade  many :  and  sent  his  servant 
at  supper  time  to  say  to  them  that  were 
bidden,  Come;  for  all  things  are  now 
ready.  And  they  all  with  one  consent 
began  to  make  excuse.  The  first  said 
unto  him.  I  have  bought  a  piece  of 
ground,  and  I  must  needs  go  and  see 
it :  I  pray  thee  have  me  excused.  And 
another  said,  I  have  bought  five  yoke 
of  oxen,  and  I  go  to  prove  them :  I 
pray  thee  have  me  excused.  And  an- 
other said,  I  have  married  a  wife,  and 
therefore  I  cannot  come.  So  that  serv- 
ant came,  and  showed  his  lord  these 
things.  Then  the  master  of  the  house 
being  angry  said  to  his  servant,  Go  out 
quickly  into  the  streets  and  lanes  of 
the  city,  and  bring  in  hither  the  poor, 
and  the  maimed,  and  the  halt,  and  the 
blind.      A\u\   the    servant    said.   I>nrd,   it 


is  done  as  thou  hast  commanded,  and 
yet  there  is  room.  And  the  lord  said 
unto  the  servant,  Go  out  into  the  high- 
ways and  hedges,  and  compel  them  to 
come  in,  that  my  house  may  be  filled. 
For  I  say  unto  you.  That  none  of  those 
men  which  were  bidden  shall  taste  of 
my  si»i)i)er.

Blessed  are  the  poor  in  spirit :  for

sins  according  to  the  Scriptures;  and 
that  He  was  buried,  and  that  He  rose 
again  the  third  day  according  to  the 
Scriptures;     and    that    He    was    seen   of 


Cephas,  then  of  tiie  twelve ;  after  that, 
He  was  seen  of  above  five  hundred 
brethren  at  once;  of  whom  the  greater 
part  remain  unto  this  present,  but  some 
are  fallen  asleep.  After  that,  He  was 
seen  of  James ;  then  of  all  the  apostles. 
And  last  of  all  He  was  seen  of  me  also, 
as  of  one  born  out  of  due  time.  For  I 
am  the  least  of  the  apostles,  that  am 
not  meet  to  be  called  an  apostle,  be- 
cause I  persecuted  the  church  of  God. 
But  by  the  grace  of  God  I  am  what  I 
am:  and  His  grace  which  was  bestowed 
upon  me  was  not  in  vain ;  but  I  labored 
more  abundantly  than  they  all :  yet  not 
I,  but  the  grace  of  God  which  was  with 
me.

And  He  spake  this  parable  unto  cer- 
tain which  trusted  in  themselves  that 
they  were  righteous,  and  despised 
others :  Two  men  went  up  into  the 
temple  to  pray ;  the  one  a  Pharisee,  and 
the  other  a  publican.  The  Pharisee 
stood  and  prayed  thus  with  hijnself, 
God,  I  thank  Thee,  that  I  am  not  as 
other  men  are,  extortioners,  unjust, 
adulterers,  or  even  as  this  publican.  I 
fast  twice  in  the  week,  I  give  tithes  ot 
all  that  I  possess.  And  the  publican, 
standing  afar  off,  would  not  lift  up  so 
much  as  his  eyes  unto  heaven,  but 
smote  upon  his  breast,  saying,  God  be 
merciful  to  me  a  sinner.  I  tell  you, 
this  man  went  down  to  his  house  justi- 
fied rather  than  the  other:  for  every

abased ;  and  he  that  humbleth  himself

Epistle :    2  Cor.  3  :  -IsU 

And  such  trust  have  we  through 
Christ  to  God-ward :  not  that  we  are 
sufficient  of  ourselves  to  think  any- 
thing as  of  ourselves;  but  our  suffii-

us  able  ministers  of  the  new  testament ; 
not  of  the  letter,  but  of  the  spirit :  for 
the  letter  killeth,  but  the  spirit  giveth 
life.  But  if  the  ministration  of  death, 
written  and  engraven  in  stones,  was 
glorious,  so  that  the  children  of  Israel 
could  not  steadfastly  behold  the  face  of 
Moses,  for  the  glory  of  His  counte- 
nance ;  which  glory  was  to  be  done 
away ;  how  shall  not  the  ministration 
of  the  spirit  be  rather  glorious?  For 
if  the  ministration  of  condemnation  be 
glory,  much  more  doth  the  ministration 
of  righteousness  exceed  in  glory.  For 
even  that  which  was  made  glorious  had 
no  glory  in  this  respect,  by  reason  of 
the  glory  that  excelleth.  For  if  that 
which  is  done  away  was  glorious,  much 
more  that  which  remaineth   is  glorious.

Epistle:  Gal.  3:l5s22 
Brethren,  I  speak  after  the  manner 
of  men :  though  it  be  but  a  man's  cove- 
nant, yet  if  it  be  confirmed,  no  man 
disannulleth,  or  addeth  thereto.  Now 
to  Abraham  and  his  seed  were  the 
promises  made.  He  saith  not.  And  to 
seeds,  as  of  many ;  but  as  of  one,  And 
to  thy  seed,  which  is  Christ.  And  this 
I  say,  that  the  covenant,  that  was  con- 
firmed before  of  God  in  Christ,  the  law, 
which  was  four  hundred  and  thirty 
years  after,  cannot  disannul,  that  it 
should  make  the  promise  of  none  eflfect. 
For  if  the  inheritance  be  of  the  law.  it 
is  no  more  of  promise :  but  God  gave 
it  to  Abraham  by  promise.  Where- 
fore   then    servclh    the    law?      It    was 


added  because  of  transgressions,  till 
the  seed  should  come  to  whom  the 
promise,  was  made;  and  it  was  or- 
dained by  angels  in  the  hand  of  a 
mediator.  Now  a  mediator  is  not  a 
mediator  of  one,  but  God  is  one.  Is  the 
law  then  against  the  promises  of  God? 
God  forbid;  for  if  there  had  been  a 
law  given  which  could  have  given  life, 
verily  righteousness  should  have  been 
by  the  law.  But  the  Scripture  hath  con- 
cluded all  under  sin,  that  the  promise 
by  faith  of  Jesus  Christ  might  be  given 
to  them   that   believe.

shall  I  do  to  inherit  eternal  life?  He 
said  unto  him.  What  is  written  in  the 
law?  how  readest  thou?  And  he  ans- 
wering said.  Thou  shalt  love  the  Lord 
thy  God  with  all  thy  heart,  and  with  all 
thy  soul,  and  with  all  thy  strength,  and 
with  all  thy  mind ;  and  thy  neighbor

Thou  hast  answered  right:  this  do,  and 
thou  shalt  live.  But  he,  willing  to 
justify  himself,  said  unto  Jesus,  And 
who  is  my  neighbor?  And  Jesus  an- 
swering said,  A  certain  man  went  down 
from  Jerusalem  to  Jericho,  and  fell 
among  thieves,  which  stripped  him  of 
his  raiment,  and  wounded  him,  and  de- 
parted, leaving  him  half  dead.  And  by 
chance  there  came  down  a  certain  priest 
that  way ;  and  when  he  saw  him.  he 
passed  by  on  the  other  side.  And  like- 
wise a  Levite,  when  he  was  at  the  place, 
came  and  looked  on  him,  and  passed  by 
on  the  other  side.  But  a  certain  Samar- 
itan, as  he  journeyed,  came  where  he 
was ;  and  when  he  saw  him,  he  had 
compassion  on  him,  and  went  to  him, 
and  bound  up  his  wounds,  pouring  in 
oil  and  wine,  and  set  him  on  his  own 
beast,  and  brought  him  to  an  inn,  and 
took  care  of  him.  And  on  the  mor- 
row when  he  departed,  he  took  out  two 
pence,  and  gave  them  to  the  host,  and 
said  unto  him.  Take  care  of  him ;  and 
whatsoever  thou  spendest  more,  when  I 
come  again,  I  will  repay  thee.  Which 
now  of  these  three,  thinkest  thou,  was 
neighbor  unto  him  that  fell  among  the 
thieves?  And  he  said.  He  that  showed 
mercy  on  him.  Then  said  Jesus  unto 
him,  Go  and  do  thou  likewise.

This  I  say  then.  Walk  in  the  Spirit,

Spirit,  and  the  Spirit  against  the  flesh: 
and  these  are  contrary  the  one  to  the 
other;  so  that  ye  cannot  do  the  things 
that  ye  would.  But  if  ye  be  led  of  the 
Spirit,  ye  are  not  under  the  law.  Now 
the  works  of  the  flesh  are  manifest, 
which  are  these:  adultery,  fornication, 
uncleanness,  lasciviousness,  idolatry, 
witchcraft,  hatred,  variance,  emula-

things  shall  not  inherit  the  kingdom  of 
God.  But  the  fruit  of  the  Spirit  is  love, 
joy,  peace,  longsufifering.  gentleness, 
goodness,  faith,  meekness,  temperance : 
against  such  there  is  no  law.  And  they 
that  are  Christ's  have  crucified  the  flesh

your  glory.  For  this  cause  I  bow  my

He  would  grant  you,  according  to  the

with  might  by  His  Spirit  in  the  inner 
man ;  that  Christ  may  dwell  in  your

and  grounded  in  love,  may  be  able  to 
comprehend  with  all  saints  what  is  the

height;  and  to  know^  the  love  of  Christ, 
which  passeth  knowledge,  that  ye  might 
be  filled  with  all  the  fulness  of  God.

ceeding abundantly  above  all  that  we 
ask  or  think,  according  to  the  power 
that  worketh  in  us,  unto  Him  be  glory

And  it  came  to  pass,  as  He  went  intc 
the  house  of  one  of  the  chief  Pharisees 
to  eat  bread  on  the  Sabbath  day,  that 
they  watched  Him.  And,  behold,  there 
was  a  certain  man  before  Him  which 
had  the  dropsy.  And  Jesus  answering 
spake  unto  the  lawyers  and  Pharisees, 
saying,  Is  it  lawful  to  heal  on  the  Sab- 
bath day?  And  they  held  their  peace. 
And  He  took  him,  and  healed  him,  and 
let  him  go;  and  answered  them,  saying, 
Which  of  you  shall  have  an  ass  or  an  ox 
fallen  into  a  pit, and  will  not  straightway 
pull  him  out  on  the  Sabbath  day?  And 
they  could  not  answer  Him  again  to 
these  things.  And  He  put  forth  a  para- 
ble to  those  which  were  bidden,  when 
He  marked  how  they  chose  out  the  chief 
rooms ;  saying  unto  them,  When  thou 
art  bidden  of  any  man  to  a  wedding, 
sit  not  down  in  the  highest  room;  lest 
a  more  honorable  man  than  thou  be 
bidden  of  him ;  and  he  that  bade  thee 
and  him  come  and  say  to  thee.  Give  this 
man  place:  and  thou  begin  with 
shame  to  take  the  lowest  room.  But 
when  thou  are  bidden,  go  and  sit  down 
in  the  lowest  room;  that  when  he  that 
bade  thee  comcth,  he  may  say  unto  thee. 
Friend,  go  up  higher:  then  shalt  thou 
have  worship  in  the  presence  of  them 
that  sit  at  meat  with  thee.  For  whoso-

But  when  the  Pharisees  had  heard 
that  He  had  put  the  Sadducees  to  si- 
lence, they  were  gathered  together. 
Then  one  of  them,  which  was  a  lawyer, 
asked  Him  a  question,  tempting  Him, 
and  saying,  Master,  which  is  the  great 
commandment  in  the  law?  Jesus  said 
unto  him,  Thou  shalt  love  the  Lord  thy 
God  with  all  thy  heart,  and  with  all  thy 
soul,  and  with  all  thy  mind.  This  is 
the  first  and  great  commandment.  And 
the  second  is  like  unto  it.  Thou  shalt 
love  thy  neighbor  as  thyself.  On  these 
two  commandments  hang  all  the  law 
and  the  prophets.  While  the  Pharisees 
were  gathered  together,  Jesus  asked 
them,  saying,  What  think  ye  of  Christ? 


whose  son  is  He?  They  say  unto  Him, 
The  son  of  David.  He  saith  unto  them, 
How  then  doth  David  in  spirit  call  Him 
Lord,  saying,  The  Lord  said  unto  my 
Lord,  Sit  thou  on  my  right  hand,  till  I 
make  thine  enemies  thy  footstool?  If 
David  then  call  Him  Lord,  how  is  He 
his  son?  And  no  man  was  able  to  ans-

behold,  certain  of  the  scribes  said  within 
themselves.  This  man  blasphemeth. 
And  Jesus  knowing  their  thoughts  said, 
Wherefore  think  ye  evil  in  your  hearts? 
For  whether  is  easier,  to  say,  Thy  sins 
be  forgiven  thee;  or  to  say.  Arise,  and 
walk?  But  that  ye  may  know  that  the

when  the  king  heard  thereof,  he  was

and  destroyed  those  murderers,  and 
burned  up  their  city.  Then  saith  he  to 
his  servants,  The  wedding  is  ready,  but 
they  which  were  bidden  were  not 
worthy.  Go  ye  therefore  into  the  high- 
ways, and  as  many  as  ye  shall  find,  bid 
to  the  marriage.  So  those  servants  went 
out  into  the  highways,  and  gathered  to- 
gether all  as  many  as  they  found,  both 
bad  and  good:  and  the  wedding  was 
furnished  with  guests  And  when  the 
king  came  in  to  see  the  guests,  he  saw 
there  a  man  which  had  not  on  a  wed- 
ding garment :  and  he  saith  unto  him, 
Friend,  how  camest  thou  in  hither  not 
having  a  wedding  garment?  And  he 
was  speechless.  Then  said  the  king  to 
the  servants.  Bind  him  hand  and  foot, 
and  take  him  away,  and  cast  him  into 
outer  darkness;  there  shall  be  weep-

all  in  the  bowels  of  Jesus  Christ.  And 
this  I  pray,  that  your  love  may  abound 
yet  more  and  more  in  knowledge  and 
in  all  judgment;  that  ye  may  approve 
things  that  are  excellent;  that  ye  may 
be  sincere  and  without  offence  till  the

fruits  of  righteousness,  which  are  by 
Jesus  Christ,  unto  the  glory  and  praise

Gospel:  Aatt.  IS  :23s35 
Therefore  is  the  kingdom  of  heaven 
likened  unto  a  certain  king,  which  would 
take  account  of  his  servants.  And  when 
he  had  begun  to  reckon,  one  was 
brought  unto  him,  which  owed  him  ten 
thousand  talents.  But  forasmuch  as  he 
had  not  to  pay,  his  lord  commanded  him 
to  be  sold,  and  his  wife,  and  children, 
and  all  that  he  had,  and  payment  to  be 
made.  The  servant  therefore  fell  down, 
and  worshipped  him.  saying.  Lord,  have 
patience  with  me,  and  I  will  pay  thee 
all.  Then  the  lord  of  that  servant  was 
moved  with  compassion,  and  loosed  him, 
and  forgave  him  the  debt.  But  the  same 
servant  went  out,  and  found  one  of  his 
fellow  servants,  which  owed  him  a 
hundred  pence:  and  he  laid  hands  on 
him,  and  took  him  by  the  throat,  say- 
ing, Pay  me  that  thou  owest.  And  his 
fellow  servant  fell  down  at  his  feet, 
and  besought  him,  saying.  Have  pa- 
tience with  me,  and  I  will  pay  thee  all. 
And  he  would  not :  but  went  and  cast 
him  into  prison,  till  he  should  pay  the 
debt.  So  when  his  fellow  servants  saw 
what   was   done,   they  were   very   sorry,

and  came  and  told  unto  their  lord  all 
that  was  done.  Then  his  lord,  after 
that  he  had  called  him,  said  unto  him, 
O  thou  wicked  servant,  I  forgave  thee 
all  that  debt,  because  thou  desiredst  me: 
shouldest  not  thou  also  have  had  com- 
passion on  thy  fellow  servant,  even  as  I 
had  pity  on  thee?  And  his  lord  was 
wroth,  and  delivered  him  to  the  tor- 
mentors, till  he  should  pay  all  that  was 
due  unto  him.  So  likewise  shall  my 
heavenly  Father  do  also  unto  you,  if  ye 
from  your  hearts  forgive  not  every  one 
his  brother  their  trespasses.

Gospel:  /Batt,  22:15=22 
Then  went  the  Pharisees,  and  took 
counsel  how  they  might  entangle  Him 
in  His  talk.  And  they  sent  out  unto 
Him  their  disciples  with  the  Herodians, 
saying,  Master,  we  know  that  Thou  art 
true,  and  teachest  the  way  of  God  in 
truth,  neither  carest  Thou  for  any  man : 
for  Thou  regardest  not  the  person  of 
men.  Tell  us,  therefore,  What  think- 
est  Thou?  Is  it  lawful  to  give  tribute 
unto  Caesar,  or  not?  But  Jesus  per- 
ceived their  wickedness,  and  said.  Why 
tempt  ye  me,  ye  hypocrites?  Show  me 
the  tribute  money.  And  they  brought 
unto  Him  a  penny.  And  He  saith  unto 
them,  Whose  is  this  image  and  super- 
scription? They  say  unto  Him,  Caesar's. 
Then  saith  He  unto  them.  Render  there- 
fore unto  Caesar  the  things  which  are 
Caesar's;  and  unto  God  the  things  that 
are  God's.  When  they  had  heard  these 
words,  they  marvelled,  and  left  Him, 
and   went   their  way.

While    He    spake    these    things    unto

and  worshipped  Him,  saying,  My  daugh- 
ter is  even  now  dead :  but  come  and  lay 
Thy  hand  upon  her,  and  she  shall  live. 
And  Jesus  arose,  and  followed  him, 
and  so  did  His  disciples.  And,  behold, 
a  woman,  which  was  diseased  with  an 
issue  of  blood  twelve  years,  came  be- 
hind Him,  and  touched  the  hem  of  His 
garment :  for  she  said  within  herself, 
If  I  may  but  touch  His  garment,  I 
shall  be  whole.  But  Jesus  turned  Him 
about,  and  when  He  saw  her,  He  said. 
Daughter,  be  of  good  comfort;  thy  faith 
hath  made  thee  whole.  And  the  woman 
was  made  whole  from  that  hour.  And 
when  Jesus  came  into  the  ruler's  house, 
and  saw  the  minstrels  and  the  people 
making  a  noise.  He  said  unto  them. 
Give  place :  for  the  maid  is  not  dead, 
but  sleepeth.  And  they  laughed  Him 
to  scorn.  But  when  the  people  were

For  if  we  believe  that  Jesus  died  and

are  ignorant  of,  thai  by  tlie  Word  of 
Ciod  the  heavens  were  of  old,  and  the 
earth  standing  out  of  the  water  and

the  day  of  judgment  and  perdition  of

unto  you.  For  yourselves  know  per- 
fectly that  the  day  of  the  Lord  so 
Cometh  as  a  thief  in  the  night.  For 
when  they  shall  say.  Peace  and  safety; 


then    sudden    destruction    comcth    upon    Twentv 
them,    as    travail    upon    a    woman    with    Sixth  and

ye,   brethren,  are  not  in  darkness,  that    ^  ndav 
that  day  should  overtake  you  as  a  thief.    After 
Ye   are   all   the   children   of   light,   and    Trinity 
the  children  of  the  day :  we  are  not  of 
the  night,  nor  of  darkness.     Therefore 
let  us  not  sleep,  as  do  others;  but  let 
us  watch  and  be  sober.     For  they  that 
sleep,  sleep  in  the  night ;  and  they  that 
be  drunken,   are  drunken   in  the   night. 
But    let    us.    who    are    of   the    day,    be 
sober,    putting    on    the    breastplate    of 
faith  and  love;  and  for  an  helmet,  the 
hope   of  salvation.     For   God  hath  not 
appointed    us   to    wrath,   but   to   obtain 
salvation    by    our    Lord    Jesus    Christ, 
Who    died .  for    us,    that,    whether    we 
wake  or  sleep,  we  should  live  together 
with    Him.     Wherefore    comfort    your- 
selves together,  and  edify  one  another,

Then  shall  the  kingdom  of  heaven  be 
likened  unto  ten  virgins,  which  took 
their  lamps,  and  went  forth  to  meet 
the  bridegroom.  And  five  of  them 
were  wise,  and  five  were  foolish. 
They  that  were  foolish  took  their 
lamps,  and  took  no  oil  with  them ;  but 
the  wise  took  oil  in  their  vessels  with 
their  lamps.  While  the  bridegroom  tar- 
ried, they  all  slumbered  and  slept.  And 
at  midnight  there  was  a  cry  made,  Be- 
hold, the  bridegroom  cometh :  go  ye 
out  to  meet  him.  Then  all  those  virgins 
arose,  and  trimmed  their  lamps.  And

But  the  wise  answered,  saying,  Not  so; 
lest  there  be  not  enough  for  us  and  you : 
but  go  ye  rather  to  them  that  sell,  and 
buy  for  yourselves.  And  while  they 
went  to  buy,  the  bridegroom  came ;  and 
they  that  were  ready  went  in  with  him 
to  the  marriage :  and  the  door  was  shut. 
Afterward  'came  also  the  other  virgins, 
saying.  Lord.  Lord,  open  to  us.  But 
he  answered  and  said,  Verily,  I  say  unto 
you,  I  know  you  not.  Watch  therefore,

And  when  the  people  saw  what  Paul

saying  in  the   speech  of  Lycaonia,  The

cause he  was  the  chief  speaker.  Then 
the  priest  of  Jupiter,  which  was  before 
their  city,  brought  oxen  and  garlands 
unto  the  gates,  and  would  have  done 
sacrifice  with  the  people.  Which  when 
the  apostles,  Barnabas  and  Paul,  heard

which  made  heaven,  and  earth,  and  the

Who  in  times  past  suffered  all  nations 
to  walk  in  their  own  ways.  Neverthe-

us  rain  from  heaven,  and  fruitful  sea-

name  of  the  Lord  shall  be  saved.  How 
then  shall  they  call  on  Him  in  whom 
they  have  not  believed?  and  how  shall 
they  believe  in  Him  of  whom  they  have 
not    heard?    and    how    shall    they    hear 


without  a  preacher?  and  how  shall  they 
preach,  except  they  be  sent?  as  it  is 
written,  How  beautiful  are  the  feet  of 
them  that  preach  the  gospel  of  peace, 
and  bring  glad  tidings  of  good  things! 
But  they  have  not  all  obeyed  the  gospel. 
For  Esaias  saith.  Lord,  who  hath  be- 
lieved our  report?  So  then  faith  com- 
eth  by  hearing,  and  hearing  by  the 
Word  of  God.

But  when  He  saw  the  multitudes.  He 
was  moved  with  compassion,  on  them, 
because  they  fainted,  and  were  scat- 
tered abroad,  as  sheep  having  no  shep- 
herd. Then  saith  He  unto  His  disciples, 
The  harvest  truly  is  plenteous,  but  the 
laborers  are  few  ;  pray  ye  therefore  the 
Lord  of  the  harvest,  that  He  will  send 
forth    laborers    into    His    harvest.

Che  preparation  of  tbe  paeeover 

mow  the  feast  of  unleavened 
bread  drew  nigh,  which  is 
called  the  passover.  And  Je;5us 
said  unto  His  disciples:  Ye  know  that 
after  two  days  is  the  feast  of  the  pass- 
over,  and  the  Son  of  man  is  betrayed  to 
be  crucified. 

Then  assembled  together  the  chief 
priests,  and  the  scribes,  and  the  elders 
of  the  people,  unto  the  palace  of  the 
high  priest,  who  was  called  Caiaphas, 
and  consulted  that  they  might  take  Je- 
sus by  subtilty,  and  kill  Him;  for  they 
feared  the  people.  But  they  said.  Not 
on  the  feast  day,  lest  there  be  an  up- 
roar among  the  people.  Now  when  Je- 
sus was  in  Bethany,  in  the  house  of 
Simon  the  leper,  there  came  unto  Him 
a  woman  having  an  alabaster  box  of 
very  precious  ointment,  and  poured  it 
on  His  head,  as  He  sat  at  meat.  But 
w'hen  His  disciples  saw  it,  they  had 
indignation,  saying.  To  what  purpose 
is  this  waste?  For  this  ointment  might 
have  been  sold  for  much,  and  given  to 
the  poor.  When  Jesus  understood  it, 
He  said  unto  them.  Why  trouble  ye 
the  woman?  for  she  hath  wrought  a 
good  work  upon  me.  For  ye  have  the 
poor  always  with  you;  but  me  ye  have 
not  always.  For  in  that  she  hath  poured 
this  ointment  on  my  body,  she  did  it 
for  my  burial.  Verily  I  say  unto  you. 
Wheresoever  this  gospel  shall  be 
I)reached  in  the  whole  world,  there 
shall  also  this,  that  this  woman  hath 
done,  be  told  for  a  memorial  of  her. 
Then  entered  Satan  into  Judas,  sur- 
namcd    Iscariot.    being    of    the    number 


of  the  twelve.  And  he  went  his  way, 
and  communed  with  the  chief  priests 
and  captains,  how  he  might  betray  Him 
unto  them,  and  said  unto  them :  What 
will  ye  give  me,  and  I  will  deliver  Him 
unto  you  ?  And  they  were  glad,  and 
covenanted  to  give  him  money.  And 
he  promised,  and  sought  opportunity  to 
betray  Him  unto  them  in  the  absence 
of  the  multitude.  Now  on  the  first  day 
of  the  feast  of  unleavened  bread,  when 
the  passover  must  be  killed,  the  dis- 
ciples came  to  Jesus,  saying  unto  Him : 
Where  wilt  Thou  that  we  prepare  for 
Thee  to  eat  the  passover  ?  And  He 
sent  Peter  and  John,  saying :  Go  into 
the  city;  and  behold,  when  ye  are 
entered  into  the  city,  there  shall  a 
man  meet  you,  bearing  a  pitcher  of 
water ;  follow  him  into  the  house  where 
he  entereth  in.  And  ye  shall  say  unto 
the  goodman  of  the  house.  The  Master 
saith  unto  thee,  my  time  is  at  hand ; 
I  will  keep  the  passover  at  thy  house 
with  my  disciples.  Where  is  the  guest- 
chamber,  where  I  shall  eat  the  passover 
with  my  disciples?  And  he  shall  s'low 
you  a  large  upper  room  furnished : 
there  make  ready.  And  they  went,  and 
found  as  He  had  said  unto  them :  and 
they  made  ready  the  passover.  And 
when  the  hour  was  come.  He  sat  down, 
and  the  twelve  apostles  with  Him. 
And  He  said  unto  them.  With  desire  I 
have  desired  to  eat  this  passover  with 
you  before  I  suffer;  for  I  say  unto 
you,  I  will  not  any  more  eat  thereof, 
until  it  be  fulfilled  in  the  kingdom  of 
God.  And  He  took  the  cup.  and  pave 
thanks,  and  said.  Take  this,  and  divide 


passion  iDlstori?

it  among  yourselves,  for  I  say  unto  you, 
I  will  not  drink  henceforth  of  this  fruit  of 
the  vine,  until  that  day  when  I  drink  it 
new  with  you  in  my  Father's  kingdom. 

And  as  they  were  eating  in  the  night 
in  which  He  was  betrayed,  Jesus  took 
bread,  and  gave  thanks,  and  brake  it, 
and  gave  it  unto  His  disciples,  saying, 
Take  eat,  this  is  my  body,  which  is 
given  for  you;  this  do  in  remembrance 
of  me.  Likewise,  also  He  took  the  cup 
after  supper,  gave  thanks,  and  gave  it 
to  them,  saying :  Drink  ye  all  of  it : 
this  cup  is  the  new  testament  in  my 
blood  which  is  shed  for  you  and  for 
many,  for  the  remission  of  sins.  This 
do,  as  often  as  ye  drink  it,  in  remem- 
brance of  me.  And  they  all  drank 
thereof. 

Now  before  the  feast  of  the  pass- 
over,  when  Jesus  knew  that  His  hour 
was  come  that  He  should  depart  out 
of  this  world  unto  the  Father,  having 
loved  His  own  which  were  in  the  world, 
He  loved  them  unto  the  end.  And  sup- 
per being  ended,  the  devil  having  now 
put  into  the  heart  of  Judas  Iscariot, 
Simon's  son,  to  betray  Him:  Jesus 
knowing  that  the  Father  had  given  all 
things  into  His  hands,  and  that  He  was 
come  from  God,  and  went  to  God:  He 
riseth  from  supper,  and  laid  aside  His 
garments;  and  took  a  towel,  and  girded 
Himself.  After  that  He  poureth  water 
into  a  basin,  and  began  to  wash  the 
disciples'  feet,  and  to  wipe  them  with 
the  towel  wherewith  He  was  girded. 
Then  cometh  He  to  Simon  Peter:  and 
Peter  saith  unto  Him,  Lord,  dost  Thou 
wash  my  feet?  Jesus  answered  and 
said  unto  him,  What  I  do  thou  knowest 
not  now :  but  thou  shalt  know  here- 
after. Peter  saith  unto  Him,  Thou  shalt 
never  wash  my  feet.  Jesus  answered 
him,  If  I  wash  thee  not,  thou  hast  no 
part  with  me.  Simon  Peter  saith  unto 
Him,  Lord,  not  my  feet  only,  but  also 
my    hands    and    my   head.     Jesus    saith 


to  him,  He  that  is  washed  needeth  not 
save  to  wash  his  feet,  but  is  clean  every 
whit :  and  ye  are  clean,  but  not  all.  For 
He  knew  who  should  betray  Him : 
therefore  said  He,  Ye  are  not  all  clean. 
So  after  He  had  washed  their  feet, 
and  had  taken  His  garments,  and  was 
set  down  again.  He  said  unto  them. 
Know  ye  what  I  have  done  to  you? 
Ye  call  me  Master  and  Lord :  and  ye 
say  well;  for  so  I  am.  If  I  then,  your 
Lord  and  Master,  have  washed  your 
feet;  ye  also  ought  to  wash  one  an- 
other's feet.  For  I  have  given  you  an 
example,  that  ye  should  do  as  I  have 
done  to  you.  Verily,  verily,  I  say  unto 
you.  The  servant  is  not  greater  than 
his  lord:  neither  he  that  is  sent  greater 
than  he  that  sent  him.  If  ye  know 
these  things,  happy  are  ye  if  ye  do  them, 
I  speak  not  of  you  all:  I  know  whom 
I  have  chosen;  but  that  the  Scripture 
may  be  fulfilled,  He  that  eateth  bread 
with  me  hath  lifted  up  his  heel  against 
me.  Now  I  tell  you  before  it  come, 
that,  when  it  is  come  to  pass,  ye  may 
believe  that  I  am  He.  Verily,  verily, 
I  say  unto  you,  He  that  receiveth  whom- 
soever I  send  receiveth  me ;  and  he  that 
receiveth  me  receiveth  Him  that  sent 
me.  When  Jesus  had  thus  said,  He 
was  troubled  in  spirit,  and  testified,  and 
said.  Verily,  verily,  I  say  unto  you,  one 
of  you,  which  eateth  with  me,  shall  bt- 
tray  me.  But,  behold,  the  hand  of  him 
that  betrayeth  me  is  with  me  on  the 
table.  And  the  disciples  were  exceeding 
sorrowful  and  looked  one  on  another, 
doubting  of  whom  He  spake.  And  they 
began  to  enquire  •  among  themselves, 
which  of  them  it  was  that  should  do 
this  thing,  and  to  say  unto  Him  one 
by  one.  Is  it  I?  and  another.  Is  it  I? 
And  He  answered  and  said  unto  them, 
It  is  one  of  the  twelve,  that  dippeth  with 
me  in  the  dish.  The  Son  of  man  in- 
deed goeth,  as  it  is  written  of  Him : 
but  woe  to  that  man  by  whom  the  Son

of  man  is  betnyrd!  good  were  it  for 
that  man  if  he  had  never  been  born. 
Then  Judas,  which  betrayed  llim,  ans- 
wered and  said.  Master,  is  it  I  ?  He 
said  unto  him.  Thou  hast  said.  Now 
there  was  leaning  on  Jesus'  bosom  one 
of  His  disciples,  whom  Jesus  loved, 
Simon  Peter  therefore  beckoned  to  him, 
that  he  should  -ask  who  it  should  be 
of  whom  He  spake.  He  then  lying  on 
Jesus'  breast  saith  unto  Him,  Lord, 
who  is  it?  Jesus  answered,  He  it  is, 
to  whom  I  shall  give  a  sop,  when  I 
have  dipped  it.  And  when  He  had 
dipped  the  sop,  He  gave  it  to  Judas 
Iscariot,  the  son  of  Simon,  And  after 
the  sop  Satan  entered  into  him.  Then 
said  Jesus  unto  him,  That  thou  doest, 
do  quickly.  Now  no  man  at  the  table 
knew  for  what  intent  He  s'pake  this 
unto  him.  For  some  of  them  thought, 
because  Judas  had  the  bag,  that  Jesus 
had  said  unto  him,  Buy  those  things 
that  we  have  need  of  against  the  feast; 
or,  that  he  should  give  something  to  the 
poor.  He  then  having  received  the  sop 
went  immediately  out :  and  it  was  night. 
And  Judas  having  gone  out,  there 
was  also  a  strife  anmng  them,  which  of 
them  should  be  accounted  the  greatest. 
And  He  said  unto  them.  The  kings  of 
the  Gentiles  exercise  lordship  over  them; 
and  they  that  exercise  authority  upon 
them  arc  called  benefactors.  But  ye 
shall  not  be  so:  but  he  that  is  greatest 
among  you,  let  him  be  as  the  younger; 
and  he  that  is  chief,  a^  he  that  doth 
serve.  For  whether  is  greater,  he  that 
sitteth  at  meat,  or  he  that  serveth?  is 
not  he  that  sitteth  at  meat?  but  I  am 
among  you  as  he  that  serveth.  Ye  are 
they  which  have  continued  with  me  in 
my  temptations.  And  I  appoint  unto 
you  a  kingdom,  as  my  Father  hath 
appointed  mito  me;  that  ye  may  eat  and 
drink  at  my  table  in  my  kingdom,  and 
sit  on  thrones  judging  the  twelve  tribes 
of  Israel.     Tesus  said.  Now   is  the  Son 


of  man  glorified,  and  God  is  glorified  in 
Him.  li  God  be  glorified  in  Him,  God 
shall  also  glorify  Him  in  Himself,  and 
shall  straightway  glorify  Him.  Little 
children,  yet  a  little  while  I  am  with 
you.  Ye  shall  seek  me;  and  as  I  said 
unto  the  Jews,  Whither  I  go,  ye  cannot 
come ;  so  now  I  say  to  you.  A  new 
commandment  I  give  unto  you.  That 
ye  love  one  another;  as  I  have  loved 
you,  that  ye  also  love  one  another. 
By  this  shall  men  know  that  ye  are 
my  disciples,  if  ye  have  love  to  one 
another.  Simon  Peter  said  unto  Him, 
Lord,  whither  goest  Thou?  Jesus  an- 
swered him,  Whither  I  go,  thou  canst 
not  follow  me  now;  but  thou  shalt  fol- 
low me  afterwards.  Peter  said  unto 
Him,  Lord,  why  cannot  I  follow  Thee 
now  ?  I  w^ll  lay  down  my  life  for  Thy 
sake,  Jesus  answered  him.  Wilt  thou 
lay  down  thy  life  for  my  sake?  Simon, 
Simon,  behold,  Satan  hath  desired  to 
have  you,  that  he  may  sift  you  as  wheat : 
but  I  have  prayed  for  thee,  that  thy 
faith  fail  not :  and  when  thou  art  con- 
verted, strengthen  thy  brethren.  And 
he  said  unto  Him,  Lord,  I  am  ready  to 
go  with  Thee,  both  into  prison,  and  to 
death.  And  He  said,  I  tell  thee,  Peter, 
the  cock  shall  not  crow  this  day,  before 
that  thou  shalt  thrice  deny  that  thou 
knowest  me.  And  He  said  unto  them. 
When  I  sent  you  without  purse  and 
scrip,  and  shoes,  lacked  ye  anything? 
And  they  said,  Nothing,  Then  said  He 
unto  them,  But  now,  he  that  hath  a 
purse,  let  him  take  it,  and  likewise  his 
scrip :  and  he  that  hath  no  sword,  let 
him  sell  his  garment,  and  buy  one.  For 
I  say  unto  you,  that  this  that  is  written 
must  yet  be  accomplished  in  me:  And 
He  was  reckoned  among  the  transgres- 
sors:  for  the  things  concerning  me 
have  an  end.  And  they  said :  Lord, 
behold,  here  are  two  swords.  And  He 
said   unto  them,   It  is  enough.

THIS  CHAPTER  CONTAINS  A  RECORD  OF  THE 

THINGS    WHICH    HAPPENED   TO   CHRIST 

IN    THE   GARDEN. 

Xcsson  I 

Christ  goes  from  Jerusalem  into  the 
mount  of  Olives,  and  tells  His  dis- 
ciples  how   they   shall   forsake   Him. 

And  when  they  had  sung  a  hymn, 
Jesus  came  out,  and  went,  as  He  was 
wont,  to  the  mount  of  OHves,  and  His 
disciples  also  followed  Him.  Then 
saith  Jesus  unto  them,  All  ye  shall  be 
offended  because  of  me  this  night :  for 
it  is  written,  I  will  smite  the  shepherd, 
and  the  sheep  of  the  flock  shall  be 
scattered  abroad.  But  after  I  am  risen 
again,  I  will  go  before  you  into  Ga- 
lilee. 

Peter  answered  and  said  unto  Him, 
Though  all  men  shall  be  offended  be- 
cause of  Thee,  yet  will  I  never  be 
offended.  Jesus  said  unto  him,  Verily, 
I  say  unto  thee,  that  this  night  before 
the  cock  crow,  thou  shalt  Lcny  me 
thrice.  Peter  said  unto  Him,  Though 
I  should  die  with  Thee  yet  will  I  not 
deny  Thee.  Likewise  also  said  all  the 
disciples. 

Xcsson  II 

The  internal  sufferings  and  ardent  prayer 
of  Christ. 

Then  cometh  Jesus  with  them  unto 
a  place  called  Gethsemane,  where  was 
a  garden,  into  the  which  He  entered, 
and  His  disciples.  And  Judas  also, 
which  betrayed  Him,  knew  the  place: 
for  Jesus  ofttimes  resorted  thither  with 
His  disciples. 

And  Jesus  saith  unto  the  disciples,  Sit 
ye  here,  while  I  go  and  pray  yonder. 
And  He'taketh  with  Him  Peter,  and 
James  and  John,  the  two  sons  of  Ze- 
bedee,  and  began  to  be  sorrowful,  and 
very  heavj'.     And  saith  unto  them.  My 


soul  is  exceeding  sorrowful  unto  death: 
tarry  ye  here  and  watch.  And  He  went 
forward  a  little,  and  fell  on  the  ground, 
and  prayed  that,  if  it  were  possible, 
the  hour  might  pass  from  Him.  And 
He  said,  Abba,  Father,  all  things  are 
possible  unto  Thee :  take  away  this  cup 
from  me :  nevertheless  not  what  I  will, 
but  what  Thou  wilt.  And  He  cometh, 
and  findcth  them  sleeping,  and  saith  unto 
Peter,  Simon:  sleepest  thou?  couldest 
thou  not  watch  one  hour?  Watch  ye 
and  pray,  lest  ye  enter  into  temptation. 
The  spirit  truly  is  ready,  but  the  flesh 
is  ^weak. 

He  went  away  again  the  second  time, 
and  prayed,  saying,  O  my  Father,  if 
this  cup  may  not  pass  away  from  me, 
except  I  drink  it,  Thy  will  be  done. 
And  when  He  returned,  He  found  them 
asleep  again,  (for  their  eyes  were 
heavy),  neither  wist  they  what  to  ans- 
wer Him.  And  He  left  them,  and 
went  away  again,  and  prayed  the  third 
time,  saying,  Father,  if  Thou  be  will- 
ing, remove  this  cup  from  me :  never- 
theless not  my  will,  but  Thine  be  done. 
And  there  appeared  an  angel  unto  Him 
from  heaven,  strengthening  Him.  And 
being  in  an  agony  He  prayed  more  ear- 
nestly :  and  His  sweat  was  as  it  were 
great  drops  of  blood  falling  down  to 
the  ground.  And  when  He  rose  up 
from  prayer,  and  was  come  to  His  dis- 
ciples, He  found  them  sleeping  for  sor- 
row, and  saith,  Sleep  on  now,  and  take 
your  rest.  Behold,  the  hour  is  at  hand, 
and  the  Son  of  man  is  betrayed  into 
the  hands  of  sinners.  Rise,  let  us  be 
going:  behold,  he  is  at  hand  that  doth 
betray  me.  But  pray,  lest  ye  fall  into 
temptation. 

Xcsson  III 

Christ  betrayed  by  Judas. 

And  while  He  yet  spake,  lo,  Judas, 
one  of  the  twelve,  came,  and  with  him 
a    great    multitude    with    swords    and 


80 


lPas9ion  l^istor^? 


staves,  from  the  cliicf  priests  and  elders 
of  the  people.  Now  he  that  betrayed 
Him  gave  them  a  sign,  saying,  Whom- 
soever I  shall  kiss,  that  same  is  He; 
hold  Him  fast. 

Jesus  therefore,  knowing  all  things 
that  should  come  upon  Him,  went  forth, 
and  said  unto  them,  Whom  seek  ye? 
They  answered  Him,  Jesus  of  Nazareth. 
Jesus  saith  unto  them,  I  am  He.  And 
Judas  also,  which  betrayed  Him,  stood 
with  them.  As  soon  then  as  He  had 
said  unto  them,  I  am  He,  they  went 
backward,  and  fell  to  the  ground.  Then 
asked  He  them  again.  Whom  seek*  ye? 
And  they  said,  Jesus  of  Nazareth.  Je- 
sus answered,  I  have  told  you  that  I 
am  He:  if  therefore  ye  seek  me,  let 
these  go  their  way:  that  the  saying 
might  be  fulfilled,  which  He  spake,  Of 
them  which  Thou  gayest  me  ha\*e  I  lost 
none. 

And  Judas  drew  near  unto  Jesus  to 
kiss  Him.  And  forthwith  he  came  to 
Jesus,  and  said,  Hail,  Master;  and 
kissed  Him.  And  Jesus  said  unto  him. 
Friend,  wherefore  art  thou  come? 
Then  came  tfiey,  and  laid  hands  on  Je- 
sus, and  took  Him. 

Xcsson  IV 

Christ,  not  p'Cnnitting,  Himself  to  be 
defended  by  the  szcord,  is  deserted 
by  His  disciples. 

When  they  which  were  about  Him 
saw  what  would  follow,  they  said  unto 
Him,  Lord,  shaM  we  smite  with  the 
sword?  Then  Simon  Peter  having  a 
sword  drew  it,  and  smote  the  high 
priest's  servant,  and  cut  off  his  right 
car.  The  servant's  name  was  Malchus. 
.\nd  Jesus  answered  and  said.  Suffer 
ye  thus  far,  and  said  to  Peter,  Put  up 
again  thy  sword  into  his  place:  for  all 
they  that  take  the  sword  .shall  perish 
with   the  sword.     Thinkest   thou   that    I 


cannot  now  pray  to  my  Father,  and  He 
shall  presently  give  me  more  than  twelve 
legions  of  angels?  But  how  then  shall 
the  Scriptures  be  fulfilled,  that  thus  it 
must  be?  And  He  touched  his  ear,  and 
healed  him. 

Then  Jesus  said  unto  the  chief  priests, 
and  captains  of  the  temple,  and  the 
elders,  which  were  come  to  Him,  Be  ye 
come  out  as  against  a  thief,  with  swords 
and  staves?  When  I  was  daily  with 
you  in  the  temple,  ye  stretched  forth  no 
hands  against  me:  but  this  is  your  hour, 
and  the  power  of  darkness.  But  all  this 
was  done,  that  the  Scriptures  of  the 
prophets  might  be  fulfilled.  Then  all 
the  disciples  forsook  Him,  and  fled. 

And  there  followed  Him  a  certain 
young  man,  having  a  linen  cloth  cast 
about  his  naked  body;  and  the  young 
men  laid  hold  on  him :  and  he  left  the 
linen  cloth,  and  fled  from  them  naked.

Icgdon  I 

Christ  is  botmd,  is  first  led  to  Anitas, 
and  afterwards  to  Caiaphas,  the  High 
Priest.  There  He  is  examined  con- 
cerning His  disciples  and  His  doc- 
trine, and  is  struck   iu   the  face. 

Then  the  band  and  the  captain  and 
the  officers  of  the  Jews  took  Jesus,  and 
bound  Him,  and  led  Him  away  to  Annas 
first:  f(»r  he  was  faihor-in-law  to  Caia- 
phas, which  was  the  high  priest  that 
same  year.  Now  Caiaphas  was  he 
which  gave  counsel  to  the  Jews,  that, it 
was  expedient  that  one  man  should 
die   for  the  people.     -And  they  that  had

laid  hold* on  Jesus  led  Him  away  to 
Caiaphas  the  hight  priest,  where  the 
scribes  and  the  elders  were  assembled. 
And  Simon  Peter  followed  Jesus,  and 
so  did  another  disciple,  unto  the  high 
priest's  palace.  And  that  disciple  was 
known  unto  the  high  priest,  and  went 
in  with  Jesus  into  the  palace  of  the 
high  priest.  But  Peter  stood  at  the 
door  without.  Then  went  out  that 
other  disciple,  which  was  known  unto 
the  high  priest,  and  spake  unto  her  that 
kept  the  door,  and  brought  in  Peter. 
And  the  servants  and  officers  stood 
there,  who  had  made  a  fire  of  coals;  for 
it  was  cold :  and  they  warmed  them- 
selves:  and  Peter  stood  with  them, 
and  warmed  himself,  to  see  the  end. 
The  high  priest  then  asked  Jesus  of 
His  disciples,  and  of  His  doctrine.  Je- 
sus answered  him,  I  spake  openly  to  the 
world :  I  ever  taught  in  the  synagogue, 
and  in  the  temple,  whither  the  Jews 
always  resort ;  and  in  secret  have  I  said 
nothing.  Why  askest  thou  me?  ask 
them  which  heard  me,  what  I  have  said 
unto  them ;  behold,  they  know  what  I 
said.  And  when  He  had  thus  spoken, 
one  of  the  officers  which  stood  by  struck 
Jesus  with  the  palm  of  his  hand,  saying, 
Answerest  Thou  the  high  priest  so? 
Jesus  answered  him.  If  I  have  spoken 
evil,  bear  witness  of  the  evil :  but  if 
well,  why  smitest  thou  me?  Now  An- 
nas had  sent  Him  bound  unto  Caiaphas 
the   high   priest.

Concerning    the   fall   and   conversion   of 
Peter. 

But  Simon  Peter  stood  and  warmed 
himself.  .  And  a  maid  of  the  high  priest 
saw  Peter  warming  himself,  and  looking 
upon  him  said :  And  thou  also  wast 
with  Jesus  of  Galilee;  art  not  thou 
also  one  of  this  man's  disciples?  But 
he     denied     before     them     all,     saying : 


Woman,  I  am  not,  I  know  Him  not; 
neither  understand  I  what  thou  sayest. 
And  soon  after  the  first  denial,  when 
he  went  out  into  the  porch,  the  cock 
crew.  And  another  maid  saw  him,  and 
said  unto  them  that  were  there,  This 
fellow  was  also  with  Jesus  of  Nazareth. 
They  said  therefore  unto  him,  Art  not 
thou,  also  one  of  His  disciples?  And 
after  a  little  while  another  saw  him, 
and  said.  Thou  art  also  of  them.  And 
again  he  denied  with  an  oath  and  said, 
Man,  I  am  not,  I  do  not  know  the  man. 
And  about  the  space  of  one  hour  after 
another  confidently  affirmed  with  them 
that  stood  by  saying:  Thout  art  a 
Galilean,  for  thy  speech  agreeth  there- 
to !  One  of  the  servants  of  the  high 
priest,  being  his  kinsman  whose  ear 
Peter  cut  off,  saith,  Did  not  I  see  thee 
in  the  garden  with  Him?  But  he  be- 
gan to  curse  and  to  swear,  saying,  I 
know  not  this  man  of  whom  ye  speak. 
And  immediately,  while  he  yet  spake, 
the  cock  crew.  And  the  Lord  turned, 
and  looked  upon  Peter.  And  Peter  re- 
membered the  word  of  the  Lord,  how 
He  had  said  unto  him.  Before  the  cock 
crow  thou  shalt  deny  me  thrice.  And 
Peter  went  out  and  wept  bitterly.

against  Jesus  to  put  Hiin  to  death  ;  and 
found  none.  For  many  bare  false  wit-

agreed  not  together.  And  there  arose 
at  last  two,  and  bare  false  witness 
against  Him,  saying.  We  heard  Him

liniuU,  Rut  neither  so  did  tlieir  witness 
tigrce  together.  And  the  high  priest 
stood  up  in  tlie  midst,  and  asked  Jesus, 
saying,  Answerest  Thou  nothing?  what 
is  it  which  these  witness  against  Thee? 
But  He  held  His  peace,  and  answered 
nothing.  Again  the  high  priest  asked 
Him.  and  said  unto  Him,  Art  Thou  the 
Christ,  tlie  Son  of  the  Blessed?  I  ad- 
jure Thee  by  the  living  God,  that  Thou 
tell  us  whether  Thou  be  the  Christ,  the 
Son  of  God.  Jesus  saith  unto  him. 
Thou  hast  said,  I  am.  Nevertheless  I 
say  unto  you,  Hereafter  shall  ye  see  the 
Son  of  man  sitting  on  the  right  hand  of 
power,  and  coming  in  the  clouds  of 
heaven.  Then  the  high  priest  rent  his 
clothes,  saying,  He  hath  spoken  blas- 
phemy: what  further  need  have  we  of 
witnesses?  behold,  now  ye  have  heard 
His  blasphemy.  What  think  ye?  They 
answered  and  said,  He  is  guilty  of 
death.  And  the  men  that  held  Jesus, 
mocked  Him,  and  some  began  to  spit 
on  Him,  and  to  cover  His  face,  and  to 
buffet  Him,  and  some,  mostly  servants, 
when  they  had  blindfolded  Him.  struck 
Him  on  the  face,  saying:  Prophesy, 
who  is  it  that  smote  Thee?  And 
many  other  things  blasphemously  spake 
they  against  Him.  When  the  morning 
was  come,  all  the  high  priests,  scribes, 
and  the  elders  of  the  people,  together 
with  all  the  council,  took  counsel 
against  Jesus  to  put  Him  to  death:  and 
led  Him  into  their  council,  saying,  Art 
Thou  the  Christ?  tell  us.  And  he  said 
unto  them.  HI  tell  you,  ye  will  not  be- 
lieve: and  if  I  also  a.sk  you.  ye  will  not 
answer  me,  nor  let  me  go.  Hereafter 
shall  the  Son  of  man  sit  on  the  right 
hand  of  the  power  of  God.  Then  said 
they  all,  Art  Thou  then  the  Son  of  God? 
And  He  said  unto  them.  Ve  say  that  I 
am.  And  they  said,  What  need  we  any 
further  witness?  for  we  ourselves  have

Clirist  is  dcUi'crcd  unto  Pilate,  the  Gov- 
cr)ior,  zi'hcn  Judas,  the  betrayer,  sees 
this  he  falls  into  desfair. 

And  the  whole  multitude  of  them 
arose,  and  when  they  had  bound  Christ, 
they  led  Him  from  Caiaphas  unto  the 
hall  of  judgment  and  delivered  Him  to 
Pontius  Pilate,  the  governor;  and  it 
was  early.  Then  Judas,  which  had  be- 
trayed Him,  when  he  saw  that  He  was 
condemned,  repented  himself,  and 
brought  again  the  thirty  pieces  of  silver 
to  the  chief  priests  and  elders,  saying; 
I  have  sinned,  in  that  I  have  betrayed 
innocent  blood.  And  they  said.  What  is 
that  to  us?  see  thou  to  that.  And  he 
cast  down  the  pieces  of  silver  in  the 
temple  and  departed,  and  went  and 
hanged  himself,  and  burst  asunder  in 
the  midst,  and  all  his  bowels  gushed 
out.  And  the  chief  priests  took  the 
silver  pieces,  and  said,  It  is  not  lawful 
for  to  put  them  into  the  treasury,  be- 
cause it  is  the  price  of  blood.  And 
they  took  counsel,  and  bought  with  them 
the  potter's  field,  to  bury  strangers  in. 
And  it  was  known  to  all  the  dwellers 
at  Jerusalem  ;  inasmuch  as  that  field  is 
called,  in  their  proper  tongue.  Acel- 
dama, that  is  to  say,  The  field  of  blood, 
unto  this  day.  Thus  was  fulfilled  that 
which  was  spoken  by  Jeremy,  the  pro- 
phet, saying.  And  they  took  the  thirty 
pieces  of  silver,  the  price  of  Him  that 
was  valued,  whom  they  of  the  children 
of  Israel  did  value,  and  gave  them  for 
the  potter's  field,  as  the  Lord  appointed 
me.

Christ  is  accused  before  Pilate  and 
offers  a  glorious  testimony  concern- 
ing His  kingdom. 

But  the  Jews  went  not  into  the  judg- 
ment hall,  lest  they  should  be  defiled; 
but  that  they  might  eat  the  passover. 
Pilate  then  went  out  unto  them,  and 
said,  What  accusation  bring  ye  against 
this  man?  They  answered,  and  said 
unto  him.  If  He  were  not  a  malefactor, 
we  would  not  have  delivered  Him  up 
unto  thee.  Then  said  Pilate  unto  them, 
Take  ye  Him,  and  judge  Him  accord- 
ing to  your  law.  The  Jews  therefore 
said  unto  him.  It  is  not  lawful  for  us 
to  put  any  man  to  death :  that  the  say- 
ing of  Jesus  might  be  fulfilled,  which 
He  spake,  signifying  what  death  He 
should  die.  Then  the  chief  priests  and 
elders  began  to  accuse  Him,  saying,  We 
found  this  fellow  perverting  the  nation, 
and  forbidding  to  give  tribute  to  Caesar, 
saying  that  He  Himself  is  Christ  a  king. 
Then  Pilate  entered  into  the  judgment 
hall  again,  and  said  unto  Him,  Art 
Thou  the  King  of  the  Jews?  Jesus 
answered  him,  Sayest  thou  this  thing  of 
thyself,  or  did  others  tell  it  thee  of  me? 
Pilate  answered,  Am  I  a  Jew?  Thine 
own  nation  and  the  chief  priests  have 
delivered  Thee  unto  me ;  what  hast 
Thou  done?  Jesus  answered,  My 
kingdom  is  not  of  this  world :  if  my 
kingdom  were  of  this  world,  then  would 
my  servants  fight,  that  I  should  not  be 
delivered  to  the  Jews :  but  now  is  my 
kingdom  not  from  hence.  Pilate  there- 
fore said  unto  Him,  Art  Thou  a  king 
then?  Jesus  answered,  Thou  sayest 
that  I  am  a  king.  To  this  end  was  I 
born,  and  for  this  cause  came  I  into  the 
world,  that  I  should  bear  witness  unto 
the  truth.  Every  one  that  is  of  the 
truth  heareth  my  voice.  Pilate  said 
unto  Him,   What  is  truth?

Christ    is    declared    guiltless    by    Pilate, 
and    is   sent    to    Herod. 

And  when  he  had  said  this,  he  went 
out  again  unto  the  Jews,  and  saith  unto 
them,  I  find  in  Him  no  fault  at  all.  And 
the  chief  priests  accused  Him  of  many 
things :  but  He  answered  nothing.  And 
Pilate  asked  Him  again,  saying,  An- 
swerest  Thou  nothing?  behold  how 
many  things  they  witness  against  Thee? 
And  He  answered  him  never  a  word; 
insomuch  that  the  governor  marvelled 
greatly.  And  they  were  the  more  fierce, 
saying,  He  stirreth  up  the  people,  teach- 
ing throughout  all  Jewry,  beginning 
from  Galilee  to  this  place.  When  Pilate 
heard  of  Galilee,  he  asked  whether  the 
man  w^ere  a  Galilean.  And  as  soon  as 
he  knew  that  He  belonged  unto  Her- 
od's jurisdiction,  he  sent  Him  to  Herod, 
who  himself  also  was  at  Jerusalem  at 
that  time.  And  when  Herod  saw  Jesus, 
he  was  exceeding  glad :  for  he  was  de- 
sirous to  see  Him  of  a  long  season,  be- 
cause he  had  heard  many  things  of  Him ; 
and  he  hoped  to  have  seen  some  miracle 
done  by  Him.  Then  he  questioned  with 
Him  in  many  words ;  but  He  answered 
him  nothing.  And  the  chief  priests  and 
scribes  stood  and  vehemently  accused 
Him.  And  Herod  with  his  men  of  war 
set  Him  at  nought  and  mocked  Him, 
and  arrayed  Him  in  a  gorgeous  robe, 
and  sent  Him  again  to  Pilate.  And  the 
same  day  Pilate  and  Herod  were  made 
friends  together ;  for  before  they  were 
at   enmity   between   themselves.

Pilate  proposes  to  scourge  Christ,  but  is 
warned  by  his  wife  not  to  shed  inno-

to  Christ. 

And  Pilate,  when  he  had  called  to- 
gether the  chief  priests  and  the  rulers 
and  the  people,  said  unto  them,  Ye  have 


84 


passion  IfDistori^ 


brought  this  man  unto  mc.  as  one  that 
pervcrtcth  tlie  people;  and,  behold,  I 
having  examined  Him  before  yon,  have 
found  no  fault  in  this  man  touching 
those  things  whereof  ye  accuse  Him : 
no,  nor  yet  Herod :  for  I  sent  you  to 
him :  and,  lo,  nothing  worthy  of  death 
is  done  unto  Him.  I  will  therefore 
chastise  Him,  and  release  Him.  Now 
at  that  feast  the  governor  was  wont  to 
release  unto  them  one  prisoner  whom- 
soever they  desired,  and  they  had  then 
a  notable  prisoner,  called  Barabbas, 
which  lay  bound  with  them  that  had 
made  insurrection  with  him,  who  had 
committed  murder  in  the  insurrection. 
And  the  multitude  crying  aloud  began 
to  desire  him  to  do  as  he  had  ever  done 
unto  them.  Therefore  when  they  were 
gathered  together,  Pilate  said  unto 
them.  But  ye  have  a  custom,  that  I 
should  release  unto  you  one  at  the  pass- 
over  :  whom  will  ye  that  I  release  unto 
you  ?  Barabbas,  or  Jesus,  the  King  of 
the  Jews,  which  is  called  Christ.  For 
he  knew  that  for  envy  they  had  deliv- 
ered Him.  When  he  was  set  down  on 
the  judgment  seat,  his  wife  sent  unto 
him,  saying.  Have  thou  nothing  to  do 
with  that  just  man:  for  I  have  suffered 
many  things  this  day  in  a  dream  be- 
cause of  Him.  But  the  chief  priests 
and  elders  persuaded  the  multitude  that 
they  should  ask  Barabbas,  and  destroy 
Jesus.  The  governor  answered  and 
said  unto  them.  Whether  of  the  twain 
will  ye  that  I  release  unto  you?  And 
they  cried  out  all  at  once,  saying. 
Away  with  this  man,  and  release  unto 
us  Barabbas:  Pilate  therefore,  willing 
to  release  Jesus,  spake  again  to  them. 
What  shall  I  do  then  with  Jesus  which 
is  called  Christ?  But  they  cried,  say- 
ing. Crucify  Him,  crucify  Him.  And 
he  said  unto  them  the  third  time,  Why. 
what  evil  hath  He  done?  I  have  found 
no  cause  of  death  in  Him:  I  will  there- 
fore chastise  Him,  and  let  Him  go.     But 


they  cried  out  the  more,  saying.  Let 
Him  be  crucified.  And  they  were  in- 
stant with  loud  voices,  requiring  that 
He  might  be  crucified :  and  the  voices 
of  them  and  of  the  chief  priests  pre- 
vailed.

Christ  is  scourged  by  Pilate;  the 
soldiers  clothe  Him  with  a  scarlet 
robe,  put  a  crown  of  thorns  upon  His 
head,   and   mock    Him. 

Then  Pilate  took  Jesus,  and  scourged 
Him.  Then  the  soldiers  of  the  gover- 
nor took  Jesus  into  the  common  hall, 
and  gathered  unto  Him  the  whole  band 
of  soldiers.  And  they  stripped  Him  and 
put  on  Him  a  scarlet  robe.  And  when 
thev  had  platted  a  crown  of  thorns,  they 
put  it  upon  His  head,  and  a  reed  in  His 
right  hand ;  and  they  bowed  the  knee 
before  Him,  and  mocked  Him.  saying. 
Hail,  King  of  the  Jews  1  They  smote 
Him  with  their  hands,  and  they  spit 
upon  Him,  and  took  the  reed  and  smote 
Him  on  the  head,  and  bowing  their 
knees,  worshipped  Him.

The  Chief  Priests  and  Elders  with  a 
loud  voice  require  Pilate  to  condemn 
Jesus  to  die  on  the  cross. 

Pilate  therefore  went  forth  again,  and 
saith  unto  them,  Behold,  I  bring  Him 
forth  to  you,  that  ye  may  know  that  I 
find  no  fault  in  Him.  Then  came  Jesus 
forth,  wearing  the  crown  of  thorns  and 
the  purple  robe.  And  Pilate  saith  unto 
them,  Behold  the  man  !  When  the  chief 
priests  therefore,  and  officers  saw  Him. 
they  cried  out,  saying.  Crucify  Him, 
crucify  Him.  Pilate  saith  unto  them. 
Take  ye  Him,  and  crucify  Him:  for  I 
find  no  fault  in  Him.  The  Jews  ans- 
wered him.  We  have  a  law,  and  by 
our  law  He  ought  to  die,  because  He 
made  Himself  the  Son  of  God.     When

Pilate  therefore  heard  that  iaying,  he 
\vas  the  more  afraid :  and  went  again 
into  the  judgment  hall,  and  saith  unto 
Jesus,  Whence  art  Thou?  But  Jesus 
gave  him  no  answer.  Then  saith  Pilate 
tinto  Him,  Speakest  Thou  not  unto  me? 
knowest  Thou  not  that  I  have  power 
to  crucify  Thee?  and  have  power  to 
release  Thee?  Jesus  answered.  Thou 
couldest  have  no  power  at  all  against 
me,  except  it  were  given  thee,  from 
above :  therefore  he  that  delivered  me 
unto  thee  hath  the  greater  sin.  And 
from  thenceforth  Pilate  sought  to  re- 
lease Him :  but  the  Jews  cried  out,  say- 
ing, If  thou  let  this  man  go,  thou  art 
not  Caesar's  friend :  whosoever  maketh 
himself    king    speaketh    against    Caesar.

Pilate  confesses  Jesus  to  be  King  of  the 
Jews;  and  after  zvashing  his  hands, 
thus  to  attest  his  innocence,  condemns 
Jesus  to  die  upon  the  cross. 

When  Pilate  therefore  heard  that  say- 
ing, he  brought  Jesus  forth,  and  sat 
down  in  the  judgment  seat  in  a  place 
that  is  called  the  Pavement,  but  in  the 
Hebrew,  Gabbatha.  And  it  was  the 
preparation  of  the  passover,  and  about 
the  sixth  hour :  and  he  saith  unto  the 
Jews,  Behold  your  King !  But  they 
cried  out.  Away  with  Him,  away  with 
Him,  crucify  Him.  Pilate  saith  unto 
them.  Shall  I  crucify  your  King?  The 
chief  priests  answered.  We  have  no 
king  but  Caesar.  When  Pilate  saw  that 
he  could  prevail  nothing,  but  that  rather 
a  tumult  was  made,  he  took  water, 
and  washed  his  hands  before  the  mul- 
titude, saying,  I  am  innocent  of  the 
blood  of  this  just  person  :  see  ye  to  it. 
Then  answered  all  the  people,  and  said, 
His  blood  be  on  us,  and  on  our  chil- 
dren. And  he  released  unto  them  Bar- 
abbas,  that  for  sedition  and  murder 
was   cast   into   prison,   whom  they  had 


desired  ;  but  he  delivered  Jesus,  scourged 
and  mocked,  to  their  will  that  they 
might  crucify  Him.

THIS    CHAPTER    CONTAINS    AN    ACCOUNT   OF 
THE  CRUCIFIXION    OF    CHRIST. 

Xesson  1 
Christ    is    led    from   Jerusalem    to    the 
place   of  crucifixion   and   preaches   to 
the  lamenting  women  of  future  cala- 
mity. 

Then  the  soldiers  of  the  governor 
took  Jesus  and  took  the  robe  off  from 
Him,  and  put  His  own  raiment  on  Him, 
and  led  Him  away  to  crucify  Him. 
And  as  they  came  out,  they  found  a 
man  of  Cyrene,  Simon  by  name,  who 
passed  by,  coming  out  of  the  country, 
the  father  of  Alexander  and  Rufus : 
him  they  compelled  to  bear  His  cross, 
and  on  him  they  laid  the  cross,  that  he 
might  bear  it  after  Jesus.  And  there 
followed  Him  a  great  company  of  peo- 
ple, and  of  women,  which  also  bewailed 
and  lamented  Him.  But  Jesus  turn- 
ing unto  them  said.  Daughters  of  Jeru- 
salem, weep  not  for  me,  but  weep  for 
yourselves,  and  for  your  children.  For, 
behold,  the  days  are  coming,  in  which 
they  shall  say.  Blessed  are  the  barren, 
and  the  wombs  that  never  bare,  and  the 
paps  which  never  gave  suck.  Then 
shall  they  begin  to  say  to  the  mount- 
ains, Fall  on  us ;  and  to  the  hills. 
Cover  us.  For  if  they  do  these  things 
in  a  green  tree,  what  shall  be  done  in 
the  dry.

Christ,  having  tasted  of  the  wine  min-

and  prays  for  His  crucifiers. 

And  there  were  also  two  others,  male- 
factors, led  with  Him  to  be  put  to 
death.     And   they   bring  Him   unto   the

place  Golgotha,  which  is,  being  inter- 
preted. The  place  of  a  skull.  And  they 
gave  Him  to  drink  wine  mingled  with 
myrrh,  or  vinegar  mingled  with  gall : 
and  when  He  had  tasted  thereof,  He 
would  not  drink.  And  they  crucified 
Him  in  the  place  which  is  called  Gol- 
gotha, and  two  malefactors  with  Him, 
one  on  the  right  hand  and  the  other  on 
the  left,  and  Jesus  in  the  midst.  And 
the  Scripture  was  fulfilled  which  saith, 
And  He  was  numbered  with  the  trans- 
gressors. And  it  was  the  third  hour, 
when  they  crucified  Him.  Then  said 
Jesus,  Father,  forgive  them;  for  they 
know    not    what    they    do.

Pilate  honors  the  cross  of  Christ  zvith 
a  glorious  superscription;  the  soldiers 
divide   Christ's  garments. 

And  Pilate  wrote  a  title  and  the  su- 
perscription of  His  accusation  and  put 
it  on  the  cross.  And  the  writing  was, 
Jesus  of  Nazareth  the  King  of  the 
Jews.  This  title  then  read  many  of 
the  Jews ;  for  the  place  where  Jesus 
was  crucified  was  nigh  to  the  city :  and 
it  was  written  in  Hebrew,  and  Greek, 
and  Latin.  Then  said  the  chief  priests 
of  the  Jews  to  Pilate,  Write  not.  The 
King  of  the  Jews;  but  that  He  said, 
I  am  King  of  the  Jews.  Pilate  ans- 
wered, What  I  have  written  I  have 
written.  Then  the  soldiers,  when  they 
had  crucified  Jesus,  took  His  garments, 
and  made  four  parts,  to  every  soldier 
a  part :  and  also  His  coat :  now  the  coat 
was  without  seam,  woven  from  the  top 
throughout.  They  said  therefore  among 
themselves,  Let  us  not  rend  it.  but  cast 
lots  for  it,  whose  it  shall  be:  that  the 
Scripture  might  be  fulfilled,  which  saith, 
They  parted  my  raiment  among  them, 
and  for  my  vesture  they  did  cast  lots. 
And  sitting  down  they  watched  Him 
there.     These  things   therefore  the   sol- 


diers   did,    and    the    people    stood    be- 
holding. 

Xcsson  IV 

Christ  commends  His  mother  to  the 
protection  of  John,  and  is  reviled  on 
the   cross. 

Now  there  stood  by  the  cross  of  Je- 
sus His  mother,  and  His  mother's  sis- 
ter Mary,  the  wife  of  Cleophas,  and 
Mary  Magdalene.  When  Jesus  there- 
fore saw  His  mother,  and  the  disciple 
standing  by,  whom  He  loved,  He  saith 
unto  His  mother.  Woman,  behold  thy 
son !  Then  saith  He  to  the  disciple. 
Behold  thy  mother !  And  from  that 
hour  that  disciple  took  her  unto  his 
own  house.  And  they  that  passed  by 
reviled  Him,  wagging  their  heads,  and 
saying.  Thou  that  destroyest  felie  temple, 
and  buildest  it  in  three  days,  save  Thy- 
self. If  Thou  be  the  Son  of  God,  come 
down  from  the  cross.  Likewise  also  the 
chief  priests  mocked  Him,  with  the 
scribes  and  elders,  saying,  He  saved 
others :  Himself  He  cannot  save.  If 
He  be  the  King  of  Israel,  let  Him 
now  come  cfown  from  the  cross,  and 
we  will  believe  Him.  He  trusted  in 
God,  let  Him  deliver  Him  now,  if  He 
will  have  Him :  for  He  said,  I  am  the 
Son  of  God.  The  thieves  also,  which 
were  crucified  with  Him.  cast  the  same 
in  his  teeth.  And  the  soldiers  also 
mocked  Him,  and  offered  Him  vinegar, 
saying.  If  Thou  be  the  King  of  the 
Jews,  save  Thyself,

were  hanf:cd  railed  on  Him,  saying.  If 
Thou  be  Christ,  save  Thyself  and  us. 
But  the  other  answering  rebuked  Him,

saying,  Dost  not  thou  fear  God,  seeing 
thou  art  in  the  same  condemnation? 
And  we  indeed  justly:  for  we  receive 
the  due  reward  of  our  deeds:  but  this 
man  hath  done  nothing  amiss.  And  he 
said  unto  Jesus,  Lord,  remember  me 
when  Thou  comest  into  Thy  kingdom. 
And  Jesus  said  unto  him,  Verily  I  say 
unto  thee,  To-day  shalt  thou  be  with 
me  in  paradise.  And  it  was  about  the 
sixth  hour,  and  there  was  a  darkness 
over  all  the  earth  until  the  ninth  hour. 
And  the  sun  was  darkened.  And  about 
the  ninth  hour  Jesus  cried  with  a  loud 
voice,  saying,  Eli.  Eli,  lama  sabachthani? 
that  is  to  say,  My  God,  my  God,  why 
hast  Thou  forsaken  me?  Some  of  them 
that  stood  there,  when  they  heard  that, 
said,  This  man  calleth  for  Elias.

Christ  complains  of  thirst:  tcstiHes  that 
all  is  accomplished;  commends  His 
soul  into  the  hands  of  His  heavenly 
Father,  and  gently  falls  asleep. 

After  this,  Jesus  knowing  that  all 
things  were  now  accomplished,  that 
the  Scripture  might  be  fulfilled,  saith, 
I  thirst.  Now  there  was  set  a  vessel 
full  of  vinegar,  and  one  ran  and  filled  a 
sponge  full  of  vinegar,  and  put  it  upon 
hyssop :  and  put  it  on  a  reed,  and  put 
it  to  His  mouth,  and  gave  Him  to  drink, 
saying.  Let  alone;  let  us  see  whether 
Elias  will  come  to  take  Him  down. 
When  Jesus  therefore  had  received  the 
vinegar.  He  said,  It  is  finished !  And 
He  cried  again  with  a  loud  voice,  and 
said :  Father,  into  Thy  hands  I  com- 
mend my  spirit:  and  having  said  thus, 
He  gave  up  the  ghost. 

Xcsson  VII 

The   miracles   which    took   place   after 
Christ's  death. 

And,  behold,  the  veil  of  the  temple 
was  rent  in  twain  from  the  top  to  the 


bottom;  and  the  earth  did  quake,  and 
the  rocks  rent;  and  the  graves  were 
opened:  and  many  bodies  of  the  saints 
which  slept  arose,  and  came  out  of 
the  graves  after  His  resurrection,  and 
went  into  the  holy  city,  and  appeared 
unto  many.  And  when  the  centurion, 
which  stood  over  against  Him,  and 
they  that  were  with  him,  watching  Je- 
sus, saw  that  He  so  cried  out,  and 
gave  up  the  ghost,  and  saw  the  earth- 
quake, and  those  things  that  were  done, 
they  feared  greatly,  and  glorified  God, 
saying,  Certainly,  this  was  a  righteous 
man,  and  the  Son  of  God.  And  all  the 
people  that  came  together  to  that  sight, 
beholding  the  things  which  were  done, 
smote  their  breasts,  and  returned.  And 
all  His  acquaintance,  and  many  women 
which  followed  Jesus  from  Galilee, 
among  whom  was  Mary  Magdalene, 
and  Mary  the  mother  of  James  the  less 
and  of  Joses,  and  Salome,  and  the  mo- 
ther of  Zebedee's  children,  who  also, 
when  He  was  in  Galilee,  followed  Him, 
and  ministered  unto  Him ;  and  many 
ether  women  which  came  up  with  Him 
unto  Jerusalem,  stood  afar  off,  behold- 
ing these  things.  The  Jews  therefore, 
because  it  was  the  preparation,,  that  the 
bodies  should  not  remain  upon  the  cross 
on  the  Sabbath  day,  (for  that  Sabbath 
day  was  a  high  day,)  besought  Pilate 
that  their  legs  might  be  broken,  and 
that  they  might  be  taken  away.  Then 
came  the  soldiers,  and  brake  the  legs 
of  the  first,  and  of  the  other  which 
was  crucified  with  Him.  But  when 
they  came  to  Jesus,  and  saw  that  He 
was  dead  already,  they  brake  not  His 
legs :  but  one  of  the  soldiers  with  a 
spear  pierced  His  side,  and  forthwith 
came  there  out  blood  and  water.  And 
he  that  saw  it  bare  record,  and  his

this  chapter  contains  a  record  of 
Christ's  burial. 

Xc00on  I 

And  now  when  the  even  was  come, 
because  it  was  the  preparation,  that  is, 
the  day  before  the  Sabbath,  Joseph  of 
Arimathea,  a  city  of  the  Jews,  and  a 
rich  man,  a  counselor;  who  was  a  good 
man,  and  a  just;  the  same  had  not 
consented  to  the  counsel  and  deeds  of 
them ;  which  also  waited  for  the  king- 
dom of  God,  being  a  disciple  of  Jesus, 
but  secretly  for  fear  of  the  Jews;  the 
same  went  in  boldly  unto  Pilate,  and 
craved  the  body  of  Jesus.  And  Pilate 
marvelled  if  He  were  already  dead:  and 
calling  unto  him  the  centurion,  he  asked 
him  whether  He  had  been  any  while 
dead.  And  when  he  knew  it  of  the 
centurion,  he  gave  the  body  to  Joseph. 
And  he  bought  fine  linen,  and  there 
came  also  Nicodcmus.  (which  at  the 
first  came  to  Jesus  by  night.)  and 
brought  a  mixture  of  myrrh  and  aloes, 
about  a  hundred  pound  weight.  Then 
took  they  the  body  of  Jesus,  and  wound 
it  in  linen  clothes  with  the  spices,  as 
the    manner    of    the    Jews    is    to    bury. 


Now  in  the  place  where  He  was  cruci- 
fied there  was  a  garden;  and  in  the 
garden  a  new  sepulchre,  that  was  hewn 
in  stone,  wherein  never  man  before  was 
laid.  Therein  they  laid  Jesus;  for  that 
day  was  the  preparation  and  the  Sab- 
bath drew  on.  And  they  rolled  a  great 
stone  to  the  door  of  the  sepulchre,  and 
departed.  And  there  was  Mary  Magda- 
lene, and  the  other  Mary,  sitting  over 
against  the  sepulchre.  And  the  women 
also,  which  came  with  Him  from  Gali- 
lee, followed  after,  and  beheld  the 
sepulchre,  and  how  His  body  was  laid. 
And  they  returned,  and  prepared  spices 
and  ointments  ;  and  rested  the  Sabbath 
day  according  to   the   commandment. 

Xcseon  II 

Now  the  next  day,  that  followed  the 
day  of  the  preparation,  the  chief  priests 
and  Pharisees  came  together  unto  Pi- 
late, saying,  Sir,  we  remember  that  that 
deceiver  said,  while  He  was  yet  alive. 
After  three  'days  I  will  rise  again. 
Command  therefore  that  the  sepulchre 
be  made  sure  until  the  third  day,  lest 
His  disciples  come  by  night,  and  steal 
Him  away,  and  say  unto  the  people. 
He  is  risen  from  the  dead :  so  the  last 
error  shall  be  worse  than  the  first.  Pi- 
late said  unto  them.  Ye  have  a  watch  : 
go  your  way,  make  it  as  sure  as  ye  can. 
So  they  went  and  made  the  sepulchre 
sure,  sealing  the  stone,  and  setting  a 
watch.

A  broken  heart,  my  God,  my  King. 

A   few  more  years  shall  roll 

A  great  and  mighty  wonder 

A  holy  state  is  wedded  life 

A  hymn  of  glory  let  us  sing 

A  Lamb  bears  all  the  guilt  away. . 

A  little  child  the  Savior  came 

A  pilgrim  and  a  stranger 

A  star  is  moving  through  the  sky. . 

A  Tower  of  strength,  our  God  is 
still     

Abide  with  me,  fast  falls  the  even- 
tide    

Abide  with  us,  Lord  Jesus 

According  to  Thy  gracious  Word. 

Again  the  Lord  of  life  and  light. . 

Ah  God !  my  days  are  dark  indeed. 

Alas  !  and  did  my  Savior  bleed.  . . . 

Alas,  my  God !  my  sins  are  great.  . 

All  glory  be  to  God  on  high 

All  hail  the  power  of  Jesus'  name. 

All  things  hang  on  our  possessing. 

Almighty  Father,  heavenly  King.  . 

Almighty  God,  Thy  Word  is  cast.  . 

Almighty  Lord  of  earth  and  heaven 

Am  I  a  soldier  of  the  cross 

An  awful  mystery  is  here 

And  now  the  sun  hath  sunk  to  rest. 

And  must  this  body  die  ? 

And  shall  we  still  be  slaves 

And  will  the  Judge  descend 

And  wilt  Thou  pardon,  Lord 

Angels!  from  the  realms  of  glory. 

Angel,   roll  the  rock  away 

Another  day  has  passed  away 

As  by  one's  sin  fell  all  our  kin.  . . . 

As  with  gladness  men  of  old 

Asleep  in  Jesus,  blessed  sleep.... 

At  Cana,  Lord,  Thou  didst  appear. 

At  Jesus'  feet,  our  infant  sweet. .  . 

Awake !  my  soul,  and  with  the  sun. 

Awake,  my  soul,  in  joyful  lays.  ..  . 

Awake !  sons  of  the  kingdom

We    sing    th'    almighty    power    of 

God 167 

We    thank    Thee,    Jesus!    dearest 

Friend    96 

Weary  now  I  go  to  rest 324 

Welcome,     Thou     Victor     in     the 

strife    88 

What  a  Friend  we  have  in  Jesus.  .  495 
What  God  does,  ever  well  is  done.  408 
What  our  Father  does,  is  well....  143 
When  all  Thy  mercies,  O  my  God.  369 
When    cold    our    hearts    and    far 

from  Thee    494 

When  in  our  hour  of  utmost  need.  151 
When    Israel    through    the    desert 

passed    180 

When  I  survey  the  wondrous  cross  476 
When  Jesus  dwelt  in  mortal  clay.  389 
When    my    last    hour    is    close    at 

hand     435 

When,  O  dear  Jesus,  when  shall  I.  307 
When    on    the    cross    the    Savior 

hung     74 

When  Rome  had  shrouded  earth  in 

night    150 

When    souls    draw    near    the    holy 

wave     227 

When,  streaming  from  the  eastern 

skies    299 

When    the    Lord    recalls    the    ban- 
ished         463 

When  the  sun,  all  golden 305 

When  we  cannot  see  our  way....  417 
Where     wilt     Thou     go?       Since 

night    -. 93 

While    o'er    our    guilty    land,     O 

Lord     152 

While    with    ceaseless    course    the 

sun    39 

While  yet  the  morn  is  breaking.  ..     296 
Who  knew  no  sin  and  no  deceiv-

Who  knows  how  near  my  life's  ex-
